Available! Desert Bloom Variscite Spirit Bird with Chains
A substantial teardrop of web-rich Desert Bloom Variscite sits at the heart of this Sterling Silver Spirit Bird. With wings spread to the sky, this is a personal power piece embodying strength, confidence, wisdom and a beautiful free spirit. I cut, texture, form, file and patina pristine sterling sheet and wire slowly over several days to create an absolutely one-of-a-kind wearable piece of artwork. The rustic quality is intentionally liberating and expressive. I balance the layers of rustic texture with refined lines of hand-forged details, using a craftsmanship that I've honed over decades. This Spirit Bird features Sterling Silver chain tail feathers that move with you and dangle so nicely on your décolleté. The sterling silver chain is fully adjustable down its entire length, secures with a hand-forged snake and is finished with a hand-formed feather. (5" wide wing span, 5" length from tip of wings to end of longest chain)
