Can spring come soon enough? I’ve noticed this week that every day brings a little more light, making it a good time to celebrate with a handcrafted bauble like this Spring Melt necklace. It’s a lovely reminder that in a healthy ecosystem, melting ice is a sign of balance and beauty – not an ominous harbinger of global warming and ensuing environmental crisis – and we can all do our part to restore that balance.
Artisan jewelry designer Ruth Stewart, inspired by nature, seasons and spirituality, describes her Impulse of Delight line as “artisan jewelry to adorn the body and feed the soul.” Stewart uses semi-precious gemstones, sterling silver and gold in necklaces, bracelets and jewelry that elegantly honor the cycles of Mother Earth.
