Kathleen

Look Around. Everything You See Is a Miracle.

The Kathleen Necklace is a luminous, reverent, breathtakingly beautiful piece that carries one of the most important and most easily forgotten reminders a person can wear: that the world around us — the sunrise, the sunset, the water, the earth, the sky in all its colors — is not ordinary. It is extraordinary. It is the work of a Creator whose imagination and artistry are beyond anything the human mind can fully comprehend, and whose love for the world is written in every color of every dawn and every dusk that has ever painted the sky. Warm yellow, deep red, vivid orange, clear blue, and shimmering silver beads come together with nature charms at approximately 18 inches in a palette as magnificent, luminous, and completely alive as the natural world it was made to honor. Available in an approximately 18 in length.

Design & Materials

• Nature charms — the symbols of a creation that is endlessly, inexhaustibly beautiful; worn as a reminder that the world is full of extraordinary things, and that the ones who notice them — who stop, and look, and let themselves be genuinely moved — are the ones who live most fully in the abundance of what has been given
• Yellow, red, orange, blue & silver beads — the full palette of the natural world at its most magnificent; warm yellow for the first light of morning breaking over the horizon; deep red for the richness and warmth of a sunset that stops you in your tracks; vivid orange for the particular, burning beauty of the sky in the moments between day and night; clear blue for the water and the sky and the vast, open expanse of a world that is larger and more beautiful than any single person can take in; and shimmering silver for the light on the water, the stars in the night sky, and the particular luminous quality of a creation that shines
• Approximate length: ~18 in — a classic collarbone length that keeps this reminder of God's incredible creations resting close to the heart
• Handcrafted with care by Amelia Heir Art Designs

The Meaning Behind It

The incredible creations of God — they are everywhere, and they are easy to miss. The sunrise happens whether or not anyone is watching. The water moves whether or not anyone stops to listen. The colors of the evening sky appear and disappear in minutes, and the people who are looking at their phones miss them entirely. Kathleen is a necklace that asks you to look up. To notice. To let the beauty of the natural world do what it was made to do: remind you that you are living in the middle of something extraordinary, that the Creator who made the sunrise and the sunset and the water and the earth made you too, with the same care and the same love and the same inexhaustible creativity — and that the world, in all its magnificent, luminous, completely extraordinary beauty, is a gift. Wear it as a reminder. Give it as an invitation. Keep it as a declaration that the incredible creations of God are worth stopping for, worth noticing, and worth the particular, reverent gratitude of a heart that has truly seen them.

A perfect gift for any occasion that calls for honoring someone whose love of the natural world, whose reverence for its Creator, and whose ability to see the extraordinary in the ordinary make them one of the most genuinely alive and grateful people you know.
