Seven Sisters
Seven sisters is a series of pieces that embody knowledge through a slow making process. Acting as physical points of reflection, they can be used to navigate uncertain times in life. Much in the way the stars have guided people through land and sea, these pieces offer themselves up to be used as guides; sharing their embodied wisdom.
These pieces are made from factory remnants which have been cut on the diamond saw and reshaped. The surface was then given a mat finish by hand with diamond pads and the lines cut into the surface with a cooper wheel. The insides are water gilded with gold from rich 24ct to bright white gold leaf.
