Secret of Steel

New creations from the kiln

Metal Clay - Scarab

New creation from the kiln tonight.  Ancient Egyptian Scarab  - Pearl Steel Metal Clay

Ankh of Joy

Lovely malachite chips withe pewter beads are a double strand delight 

framing this wonderfully large pewter ankh.

Malachite is a spiritually deep green stone that has been used for thousands of years. Malachite was the preeminent stone of Ancient Egypt used by royalty in their crowns.

Malachite is the perfect magical stone for protection, joy, love!!!  I love to use this stone with the Egyptian Goddess Hathor – the Goddess of Joy, Love, Dancing.  I also love to associate Malachite with Khepra – “to come into being” scarab sun deity of Ancient Egypt – deity of birth, renewal, and resurrection – the personification of transformation

And the stunning focal of this double strand necklace, the Ancient Egyptian Pewter Ankh with Sandstone Scarab at its heart.  The Ankh that symbolizes sacred life.

Such a wonderful combination in this fantastically spiritual necklace.  The Ankh of sacred life coupled with the Sun God Khepra who ‘is coming into being’ combined with Malachite for a powerful combination to bring ourselves joyfully into being.

Ankh for a King

Through FIRE to SERENITY

I have loved Ancient Egypt since a child of 9 and my love of stones and handmade jewelry started at the same time. And I love being able to combine the two for myself and others.  When starting a new project I envision what a woman from Ancient Egypt might wear whether she be common, princess or priestess.

New beauties have been dreamed into being, both of these necklaces I beyond adore.  Take a look below at the two new polar opposites yet complimentary creations that spilled forth from Ancient Egypt into my studio recently.

FIRE of ISIS and the ANKH of SERENITY.  

The Fire of Isis is woven from earth brewed Lava, sun born Tiger Eye, and furnace fired Bronze framing a wondrous silver Winged Isis holding the Sun made from Amber.  The Fire of Isis is bubbling with high energy, joy, fiery direction and solar feel goodness; straight from the Sun God, bestowing sunshiny benevolence.

The Ankh of Serenity, a stunning double strand necklace made from one of my favorites; calming, meditative Magnesite dyed a wonderful soul reaching black.  The chunkier strand is made from exquisite Chinese Turquoise, a lush heart enveloping green; interspersed throughout with Pewter beads. This double strand of exquisite stones sets off to perfection a large Egyptian Pewter Ankh with a Sandstone Scarab at its heart.  Talk about a necklace seemingly to flow straight from the Nile to touch the heart weaving love and serenity.
