Carols of Olde
The holidays have always been a time of immense joy and pain for me, especially in recent years. I carry with me the fortunes of a new year ahead...and also keep several memories of those who I miss or have lost and still hold dear tightly in my heart.
In this time of quiet reflection, I take comfort in carols from centuries ago. Especially those steeped in religious imagery. I have never considered myself to be an especially religious person, if asked I will say I am agnostic, but there's just something about medieval carols and music in general that speaks to me. I cannot really articulate why.
In regards to my jewelry, I have been months-long ensconced in the creative process. I hope to release five new pieces before Christmas Eve. I know they have been long awaited and I truly believe they live up to my aesthetic and my relentless pursuit of perfection. It is my sincerest hope as an artist and craftswoman that you enjoy them and wear them in good health if you do decide to add to your collection.
I leave you with Sting's rendition of Gabriel's Message, a song based on a 13th century Basque carol.
