The Pendant "Life with green movement"


This piece is one of my favorites, the Stone which decorates it is a amazing drop of amazonite with gorgeous and variable green color. I have to confess that I was looking for this stone for a long time, since I saw a beautiful piece made by a friend with a natural amazonite. The green charmed me. This stone, natural or polish took all my attention, the texture, the colors, is so beautiful.


Well, when this small strone arrived to my hands and in the moment I only could think "Ahhh!, now what can I do with this?", jajajajajaja, we ask for something and then, when it arrived to us we didn´t know what to do... The first thing that I did was see it and see it again... The stone made me a surprise, I only look at it watching the colors, the shape, each face of the stone with its own message. In that moment an idea came to me!.

Obsviously, the plate which holds the stone might to be in movement, like many of my pieces, then I decided to curve and made some texture, breaking the monotony. This piece needs the changeable movement which generate evolution, the evolution which represent the change we do during our lives, that change we have to accept it in order to adapt us and make us become and individual as a part of a global society.

Then, I don´t wanted put the stone over the plate, I thought the beautiful stone has two beautiful faces and it will be interesting to work and make this stone float freely, that is the way to born the bevel with the wire which support the stone.

When I saw the finished piece I felt real satisfy, is so beautiful!. I obtained my goal supporting the stone freely.

I hope you like it !

Things to Think

This we know,
All things are connected
like the blood
which unites one family ...


Whatever befalls the earth,
befalls the sons and daugthers of the earth
Man did not weave the web of life;
he is merely a strand in it.
Whatever he does to the web,
he does to himself
