The moon symbolizes the Sacred Feminine in cultural traditions the world over. Among our peoples, she plays her own role, as counterpart to the sun, in sustaining the people through each night. Even when she is new and dark, like a sacred hoop of mysterious jet, still she gives off ripples and waves of shimmering light in which the night flowers bloom. Here, she appears in her new dress, as a sphere of glistening onyx, casting hundreds of tiny and shining reflections of her essential light. The cuff’s gentle anticlastic shaping and hammered effect created by hundreds of tiny individual strikes magnify the shimmering effect; the onyx stone rests in a layered bezel with scalloped edged, trimmed with delicate twisted silver.
