The Story
In many cultures, the "Evil Eye" is a powerful talisman of protection, meant to deflect negativity and keep the wearer safe. In this handcrafted set, that ancient symbolism is fused with the biological architecture of the natural world.
The necklace features the epiphyses (the rounded ends of long bones) from a diverse collective: Raccoon, Opossum, Armadillo, Wild Boar, and Goat. The accompanying earrings carry a more somber, sacred weight; they are crafted from the tiniest vertebrae of an Opossum—a salvaged specimen whose life, along with her unborn pouch young, was tragically cut short by a vehicle strike. By individually wiring these elements into a protective "party" of glass beads, we transform a moment of loss into a permanent, beautiful guard against the dark.
The Composition
This 16.5-inch multi-strand masterpiece is a feat of precision hand-wiring.
The Metalwork: Each component is individually secured with Parawire 20-gauge Rose Gold, a silver-plated, premium quality, non-tarnish wire that provides a warm, elegant glow.
The Accents: A curated mix of glass Evil Eye beads including 4mm rounds, 8mm coins, and varied 6mm and 8mm blue and white beads.
The Bone: A biological mosaic of ethically salvaged epiphyses.
The Earrings: Opossum vertebrae flanked by 4mm white glass beads on .925 plated Rose Gold-tone fish hook findings.
Style & Wear
The "Guardian’s Gaze" is designed to be a statement of both style and spirit. The multi-strand architecture provides a rich, layered texture that sits beautifully against the collarbone, while the Rose Gold wire offers a soft, feminine contrast to the raw, white bone elements.
This set is for the collector who understands that art isn't just about what you see—it's about what you carry with you. It is a labor-intensive, handcrafted fusion of protection and preservation.
Price: $97.00
A direct-to-collector value reflecting the extensive hours of intricate hand-wiring and preparation required for this multi-component set.
