I long to visit the birthplace of my uncle and cousins. A place where
ancient traditions remain untouched from one generation to another. It
is a culture in which cellphones, ipods, and other electronic gadgets
still don't exist. It is a place where family secrets are hard to keep
when there are grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles all living under
one roof. A land inhabited by indigenous people, surrounded by
turquoise colored seas. Upolu Island, Samoa, a place where time stands
still.
Genuine turquoise, smoky quartz, and
sterling silver encompass this hand formed bracelet. Each stone is
intertwined with 925 wire, oxidized for a vintage patina, and then
buffed by hand. This is a nice, chunky bracelet that will flatter any wrist size. Matching earrings also available.
