Within it sit faceted crystal forms, and above them a watchful seeing eye - open, aware, protective. It is a symbol of intuition, second sight, and inner knowing. Not superstition.

The gold detailing catches the light like a spark of insight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"621\" data-end=\"788\"\u003ePerched at the top of the handle is a natural clear quartz point, left raw in its formation and secured with a gold accent.

From creating the form, to hand making each batch of glaze, to hand carving and hand painting the designs, many variances are found at each stage of the process. Each piece is mindfully created in my studio over a number of weeks, with each finished piece having its own subtle differences. That is the beauty of handmade.
