A dark blue star sapphire rests within a hand-grown copper cradle, suspended from strands of vintage hand-dyed silk. This piece feels like a small relic—something unearthed from deep earth or carried as a quiet personal talisman.
The sapphire’s surface reveals subtle shifting light, with the faint suggestion of a star that appears and fades as it moves. Its deep, shadowed blue pairs beautifully with the organic textures of raw copper and softly frayed silk, creating a piece that feels both ancient and intimate.
The copper bail was formed through the electroforming process, slowly building layers of metal over time to create a naturally textured setting that embraces the stone. The silk ribbon is vintage and hand-dyed, with gentle wear and frayed edges that add to its timeworn character.
No two pieces like this will ever be exactly the same.
