A funky fun marcasite rectangle is showcased in this ring, framed by "burst" texturing and hand-cast recycled sterling silver Pine Tree Rosettes. The marcasite stone features reflective flecks and a glowing depth that is remarkable in sunlight. Designed for comfort, the double band is split and features tapered 1/2 round wire that has been hand hammered with a spotted texture. This ring fits a size 7.5 and comes gift packaged in recycled and recyclable/ compostable/ reusable materials.

Inspired by the yearning to be closer and connected to the natural world, The Biophilia Collection is crafted from organic components found in the Maryland mountainside  and hand cast in my home studio using recycled sterling silver and copper metal clay. 

Locally scavenged seeds, needles, leaves, fungus, branches and bark are the inspiration and forms for these whimsical pieces. I hope they allow you to feel closer to nature even when you are unable to immerse yourself in its wonders.
