Another version of the Elements rings.
With my customers inherited diamonds I designed and hand made this stackable ring series. The Elements: In the top view I was looking for the feeling of moving water around the stones. On one shoulder we see a single coniferous tree and two hawks. In one side we see one hawk taking flight into the wind, a waxing crescent moon and a bumblebee looking for the next shoulder of the ring, an endless field of sunflowers. The last side is fire. It could also be the corona of the solar eclipse.

Miranda’s hawk ring
She requested a geode ring. I had a few beautiful heart shaped crystals and started carving. It started as a tree people ring then it became a hawk or bird ring. The stone is a starry night, the tree is holding up the sky. On one of its branches sits a hawk while on the opposite shoulder we see the broad stroke of the wing of the second hawk flying over. And a big M Happy Birthday! Xoxo Dad

This was from 2022, right before the tide took it all away. Same beach a couple miles away.

Just got back from the beach. I was able to complete 5 big heads at 5:55pm at high tide. If anyone saw these at mile post 14 beach access on the outer banks, please post and say Hi if we met.
