Last October, at elk camp, Robbie and I were sleeping and the fire in the stove had gone out and the tipi walls were rustling in the night wind and the tip of my nose was cold and I was exhausted but awake and a wolf pack started up. All around the meadow we were camped in I heard their voices ring out against the starshine. It was beautiful music but the horses were going berserkers on the highline and before we unzipped our sleeping bags and crawled out of our tipi to go and check on our beasts of burden and all our knots, I thought to myself, "I need a little wolf to hang around my neck..."
Well the years have passed and I've made plenty of little wolf necklaces but this is a bigger, deeper iteration of my wolf series featuring a very cool cut of black agate with a druzy edge which I interpreted as the cover of night, or a den...the pendant design here depicts a lone wolf running strong and curious beneath a starry sky or a lone wolf leaving her den to hunt for her pups. Symbolic and narrative. This is the first piece of jewelry I finished after bringing my daughter into the world. It's an extremely special design with a very peaceful and powerful feel to it.
