the story
Amaranta collection is inspired by the flowers (mostly wild) that I collected during the pregnancy of my first daughter. I wanted to immortalize them in metal, as well as the feeling of joy, anticipation, and love experienced during the sweet wait. In each of the pieces, I enclose the wish to my daughter and every woman to be like a wildflower, that grows in freedom and abundance no matter the weather that hits her or the terrain where she stands.
This pendant features the sculptural shape of the foxglove or "lady's glove" flower. It comes with a long silver cable chain that you can pass through your head without the need for a clasp. Inside of the foxglove, you will find endless granules instead of its characteristic spots, like seeds coming out from a horn of plenty.
how it's made
I made the wax model of the digitalis flower by hand, then I cast it in sterling silver in small batches.
