WoodAs with the example of bamboo, the Wood element is considered to predominate attributes of strength and flexibility. It is also associated with qualities of generosity and idealism. It is the leader within us that can take charge and direct a plan of action. #753 / Tagua
The pendant is sculpted from the Tagua Palm nutshell. It is inscribed on the obverse with the maker's name - Margarita. The rich golden brown tones of the shell are augmented by use of Bronzite beads, in roughly symmetrical shapes. Golden glass doughnut from Mali, faceted Apache Gold Pyrite / Steatite from Arizona, and glass spacer beads from Czechoslovakia continue the color scheme with the addition of various harmonious textures.

$175 /necklace length 20" tagua pendant 1.7 inches wide x 2.3 inches tall #1401 Rabbits with Kale
Much folklore may be attributed to Rabbit: abundance, comfort, vulnerability, a close link to the changing seasons. And the special celebration of Spring with its beginnings, growth and celebration of life.
One can also extend the traits of a Rabbit's fast heart beat to being highly sensitive, extremely alert and very cautious. Their radar like hearing are akin to our examination and usage of the tools we have deep within ourselves. Their nocturnal nature reflect deep intuition and emotional reflection. The image of Rabbit may encourage us to retreat, get warm and collect underground, held by Mother Earth. necklace length: 21 inches
