A symbol of new beginnings and the shift into something brighter.
This little fawn is painted entirely by hand in vitreous enamel, resting in fresh green growth, like the first real sign that winter is loosening its grip. February may still feel heavy, but the light is changing. The season is turning.
Fawns have always felt like resilience to me. Not fragile. New. Stepping into the world with steady legs and wide eyes.
Each pendant begins as raw metal in my studio. I saw the silhouette by hand, form the setting, and paint every detail in enamel with a tiny brush. It’s fired in the kiln multiple times to build depth and color, layer by layer. No decals. No shortcuts. Just time, heat, and intention.
The finished piece feels fresh and full of life. A small reminder that growth is already happening, even when you can’t see it yet.

Care for Your Enamel Jewelry
I use high-quality materials to create artful jewelry meant to be worn and treasured for years to come.
While these pieces are lightweight and comfortable, they should be removed before bathing or swimming. Prolonged moisture, especially from chlorinated water, can cause silver to darken more quickly.
Apply perfume, hairspray, or body products before putting on your jewelry, and remove it when using household cleaners. Chemical fumes and residues can affect both silver and enamel over time.
A printed care card is included with your jewelry for easy reference.
