This piece is inspired by nature and yoga. In yogic science.,It is in icon for the nadis: the ida and the pingala. Nadis are energy channels in the body. These 2 are nerve lines that dance a braid on either side of the spinal column guiding prana through the subtle body. The ida fuels with cool, lunar-fueled feminine chi enlivening the left side of the body and it controls the right side of the brain. The sun charges the pingala with warming, masculine energy which leads prana down the right side of the body and through the left side of the brain. The sushumna nadi is a shaft running between the two. When the Sushumna is active, then, the person is in Samadhi… the highest state of consciousness, I have had the luck to pop into it a few times and I can tell you it is a truly ethereal place.. It is represented in this piece in the flowering stone. L= 2 3/4” long, W=about 7/8” . Chain is an adjustable, 18” sterling one.

Each piece is an original, hand-fabricated solely by me, That means each one gets shaped, hammered, textured, soldered, oxidized and possibly set with stones. Every piece arrives tucked into a muslin bag stamped with my logo.
