Wish Jewelry
Real dandelion seeds encased within glass. This high quality glass will never yellow or scratch like resin. Wonderful memories of blowing dandelion fluff and making wishes when we were little. As with my real flower jewelry, I encase real dandelion fluff (seeds) between two teardrop (I prefer "raindrop") glass cabochons creating a terrarium of sorts. With this pendant you can take a piece of nature with you wherever you go.
Military Child National Flower
I was recently told that the dandelion is considered the military national flower and is representative of children of parents in the military. It's the plant that puts down roots almost anywhere, unpretentious, survivor of many climates, the roots are strong, it's hardy, upright, and they are ready to fly with the breezes to new adventures. So, befitting of many military brats.
Handcrafted Process
My medium is Stained Glass “Tiffany” technique. It is the method of applying copper foil, wire and solder to form my jewelry designs. All of my work is newly made with an intentional aged appearance of oxidized silver. Each piece is lovingly handmade by me in my studio on the bayou here in Louisiana. The metal is applied with an iron as opposed to a torch which lends to an organic sense, both to the look and feel of each of my pieces. Please keep in mind that the photographed item is a representation of what you will receive. As with all handmade, no two are ever exactly alike. The solder is a mix of metals, which is metal sensitive friendly, no zinc, no nickel, no lead. All jump rings are soldered closed for security. I use the highest quality glass which does not scratch or yellow like resin. My packaging is thoughtful and secure to assure your purchases arrive safely. If you have any questions, please contact me.
