Emily

Love That Is Strong Enough to Hold, Bear, and to Last.

The Emily Bracelet Set is a warm, luminous, deeply beautiful piece that honors the most complete and most genuinely admirable kind of love: love, strength, and endurance — not the easy love of perfect circumstances, but the love that holds through difficulty, that is strong enough to bear the hard things without breaking, and that endures because it is rooted in something so deep and so completely real that no season and no difficulty and no amount of time can diminish it. Pure white, shimmering silver, deep red, and soft pink beads come together around a rose charm and a heart charm in a palette as warm, luminous, and completely alive as the most enduring and most genuinely beautiful love in the world. Available in a 7 in wrist size.

Design & Materials

• Rose charm — for the love that is as beautiful as it is strong; the rose that grows on thorns and blooms through adversity and returns, year after year, with the particular, faithful, completely alive beauty of something that has endured everything the seasons have thrown at it and emerged, every time, more beautiful than before — the most perfect natural symbol of a love that is not diminished by difficulty but deepened by it, not weakened by endurance but made more completely, beautifully itself
• Heart charm — for the love that is the source of all genuine strength and endurance; the open, completely genuine love of someone who has decided that the person they love is worth every bit of the strength and the endurance they have to give — and who finds, in that decision, not a burden but the most complete and most genuinely alive expression of everything they are
• White beads — for the purity and clarity of a love that is completely, honestly itself; the luminous white of a love that does not pretend or perform or present a version of itself that is easier or more convenient than the real thing — but is simply, completely, and entirely real, as clear and as luminous and as genuinely present as the most honest light in the world
• Silver beads — for the strength and precision of a love that holds with everything it has; the cool, clear silver of a strength that is not brittle or rigid but enduring — the particular, faithful, completely genuine strength of something that has been tested and has held, and that is stronger for the testing rather than diminished by it
• Red beads — for the depth and passion of a love that endures with everything it feels; the deep, sustaining red of a love that does not fade or moderate or settle into something more comfortable than the full, passionate, completely real love it has always been — the particular, enduring red of a love that is as vivid and as completely alive after ten years as it was on the first day
• Pink beads — for the tenderness and warmth of a strength that is as gentle as it is real; the soft, warm pink of a love that is strong not in the hard, unyielding way but in the particular, warm, completely genuine way of something that holds gently and firmly at the same time — that is tender with the people it loves and strong for them, always and completely
• Wrist size: 7 in
• Handcrafted with care by Amelia Heir Art Designs

The Meaning Behind It

Love, strength, and endurance — these three form the most complete and most genuinely admirable kind of love, because each one is what makes the others possible and each one is made more real by the others. The love makes the strength necessary — because the love that is worth having is always the love that is worth being strong for, and the person who loves deeply enough always finds, in that love, the strength they did not know they had. The strength makes the endurance possible — because the love that endures is always the love that has been strong enough to hold through the moments when holding was the hardest thing in the world, and that has found, in the holding, the particular, deep, completely genuine knowledge that this love is worth every bit of the strength it requires. And the endurance makes the love more beautiful — because the love that has endured is always the most beautiful kind: the love that has been tested and held, that has weathered every season and emerged, every time, more rooted and more completely, genuinely alive than before. Emily is a bracelet for those people — the loving, strong, enduringly faithful ones — and for everyone who has ever been loved by them with the particular, deep, completely real love that holds and bears and endures, and who knows, with the most personal and most complete certainty, exactly how rare and how entirely extraordinary that love is.

A perfect gift for Valentine's Day, winter, or any occasion that calls for celebrating a love that is as strong as it is tender, as enduring as it is vivid, and as completely, genuinely alive as the most beautiful rose in the most faithful garden.
