No. 36 – Whispers of the Forest – 24" Necklace

A one-of-a-kind necklace with the cool, electric beauty of a forest at twilight — vivid, layered, and alive with the particular quality of light that only exists just after the sun has gone below the tree line.

The strand flows through vivid turquoise rounds and larger turquoise nugget beads — bright, saturated, and full of the life-giving energy this stone has carried across cultures for thousands of years. Soft lavender amethyst rounds shift the palette into something cooler and more contemplative, and deep blue lapis or sodalite rounds deepen the tone further still, drawing the eye down toward the pendant. Ornate gold barrel spacer beads thread through the strand with warm, precise detail, and a gold toggle clasp finishes the piece with clean, considered elegance.

The pendant is the piece's night sky: a large marquise-shaped form in oxidised dark copper or bronze, its eye-like silhouette holding a deep blue labradorite or blue tiger's eye cabochon whose surface shimmers with a luminous chatoyant glow. It catches light from within, shifting and deepening as the wearer moves — alive in the way only natural stone can be.

Photographed directly on a mossy forest floor among pine needles, lichen patches, and fern fronds beside a polished sodalite heart stone and scattered wild berries — the most honest setting possible for a piece this rooted in the natural world.

Impression: Cool, electric, and quietly otherworldly. Whispers of the Forest is for the woman who listens to what the trees say — and has learned to trust what she hears.
