the story

What could be more representative of resilience and reinvention than a phoenix rising from the fire, reborn from its own ashes? First depicted by the Egyptians over 3,000 years ago, the myth of the phoenix has evolved over time and has been embraced by many cultures, all while preserving its core symbolism of rebirth and immortality.

In this set of brooches, the image of the phoenix is linked by a chain to the flames of transformative fire, inseparably connected, as the fire is essential for the phoenix’s existence.

The brooches can be worn together or separately, as attaching the chain to the back of the brooches is optional.

'Sibli,' meaning 'to whistle' in Esperanto and evoking the word 'sibling' in English, is a collection I created while pregnant with my second child, Mateo, during the most challenging days of the COVID lockdown. I found inspiration in the birds I watched and listened to from my window. These graceful and adventurous creatures, celebrated in many cultures, symbolize resilience, joy, love, wisdom, and strength.

Through a series of whimsical thaumatropes and charms, I aimed to capture these values and aspirations. I hope that by wearing them and keeping them close, they will accompany and inspire you.

how it's made

I carefully cut and welded this little bird and fire in different layers to give them depth. I then engraved details on both sides of the brooches and added a touch of dark patina to bring out the intricacies. The brooches are made of sterling silver, and the brooch mechanisms are metal alloy.
