seasons collection

Inspired by seasons, I create collections which capture a fragment of time in the form of a petal, leaf, seed pod, branch and other bits of plant matter. Making these parts in silver, bronze, copper, stone and glass is an alchemy of materials, in which these fragments become tangible and wearable. The abstraction of these forms allows those viewing them to hold the secret of their story (and mine) as they wear these pieces. Shapes and colors become symbols holding a different meaning for all who see it. Someone may enjoy the cycle of a flower that goes to seed, while another person prefers flowering. Either way, every part of nature, the wearer and the maker are important, working together to combine the basic elements of life. as seasons change and dormancy starts to root, bud and flower, I will add pieces to this collection. thanks for taking part in this cycle. I hope you enjoy these one of a kind offerings. xoxo, kim

pine + snow hoops

pine + snow hoops

$48.00

made of sterling silver, these hoops have a subtle texture which looks like snow glistening on a pine needle. this is enhanced by a satin texture which allows the hammer marks to shine when the light catches them. to capture the colors of winter I used tree agate beads to complete the theme.

these earrings hang about 1.75” long. there are three beads which move gracefully on each hoop. the center bead is a 8x5mm rondelle and the two outer beads are 4mm round.

I have been wearing them on my walks to visit neighborhood trees. They are light and easy to wear, even with a hat and scarf.

if you’re into symbolism and properties: tree agate is said to offer a warm, protective quality to the wearer and promote calmness. pine is a symbol of abundance, beginnings and growth.

this is a limited edition of three hoops. enjoy them while they are here. xo, Kim
