Chapter III · The Craft of Adornment 03 / 12

Adornment That Has Traveled

Silver darkened by smoke and time

Oxidized german-silver keeps the patina of every campfire it passed.

Stones set for protection, not polish

Carnelian and deep turquoise rest in heavy, toothed bezels.

Tassels carry the sound of movement

Coin pendants chime with each step across dust and mountain.

Each piece is worn before it is sold

Hands test every clasp so the necklace sits right on the road.
