GOLDSMITHING INSPIRED BY LANDSCAPES ON THE EDGE

Bone Moon Earrings limited run available now. 🌙

Edge

By Sylvia Plath

Share
The woman is perfected.
Her dead

Body wears the smile of accomplishment,
The illusion of a Greek necessity

Flows in the scrolls of her toga,
Her bare

Feet seem to be saying:
We have come so far, it is over.

Each dead child coiled, a white serpent,
One at each little

Pitcher of milk, now empty.
She has folded

Them back into her body as petals
Of a rose close when the garden

Stiffens and odors bleed
From the sweet, deep throats of the night flower.

The moon has nothing to be sad about,
Staring from her hood of bone.

She is used to this sort of thing.
Her blacks crackle and drag.

While I respect this #lakesuperioragate 's refusal to perform for the camera, I wish you could see her in person. Sterling silver and 14k yellow gold, custom piece.

The thing I really enjoyed about these his & hers wedding bands is that they're paired without being too matchy. 🌾

Turkey Creek Hot Springs! Ngl, it ended up being a pretty serious hike. We saw (almost stepped on) an Arizona Mountain Kingsnake, a Black Tailed Rattle Snake, and a whole pack of Coatimundis. Also my shoes fell apart again

It's always special to be involved in making an engagement ring. It's extra great when they're so great. 💕

TW: Some light gore in the 2nd photo.

Story time!

I took a day off today to do something I've helped other folks do but have never taken point on myself.
Last night I watched a mule deer get hit by a car and die. Since I had the childhood I had, my first thought was, "I could probably eat that." So, with the blessing of the game warden I took it home and late last night, with the help of a friend for the heavy lifting, and my dad to talk me through the steps, I gutted and skinned the deer. Today, a friend and I finished up the processing and split the meat.

The whole process was surprisingly elating. It was a lot of work, and I was startled to find that I was shakey with adrenaline when I finished the gutting. It felt good to know a senseless car death was a little less senseless, and it feels good to know I am capable of fully processing such a big animal start to finish. It also feels good to know that in a few weeks, when the bones have been picked clean in the desert out behind my house, I will go collect them and chop them up to make more bone earrings.

Thanks for such a successful earring sale. I appreciate your orders, likes, and comments so much! All orders are in the mail, and you should have tracking in your email. As a side note, I'm always surprised by what goes and what doesn't. These were probably my favorites of the collections (although I loved them all ofc) and they're one of the only pairs left. Guess they get to be mine, at least for today. 🌿

Hey friends, I'm going to be out of the studio for a few weeks for a family emergency. I meant to do a big one-of-a-kind earring drop before Valentine's Day, but since that's not gonna work, stay tuned in early March for some seriously (in my opinion) cool pieces. Thanks for being here. ❤️
