Emberwild || Red Marcasite & Red Jasper Pendant

THE ALCHEMY OF THIS PIECE

When I started working with this piece of Red Marcasite, I couldn't stop looking at all the little details hiding inside it. The smoky gray, earthy greens, rusty reds, and golden tones make it feel almost like a tiny landscape after a wildfire—darkened earth with little pockets of color still glowing underneath. I added the small Red Jasper accent at the top as a little spark of warmth, then wrapped the whole thing in bronze to bring out those rich, earthy tones. The finished piece feels wild and ancient to me, like something you might find tucked away in an old traveling trunk after years of adventures around the world.

I imagine Emberwild finding its way to someone who has a little fire left in them, even after everything they've been through. Maybe you've had a season that burned away some things you thought would always be there, or maybe you're simply in the process of figuring out what still matters and what you're ready to leave behind. Fire doesn't always mean destruction—it can also clear the way for something new. Wear this as a reminder that even when things look a little scorched around the edges, there can still be warmth, color, and a whole lot of life waiting underneath.

HOW TO KEEP THE MAGIC STRONG

Each piece is lovingly hand-forged by yours truly in my small (and slightly chaotic) home studio. I work with natural and recycled materials, so you might notice a bit of texture, variation, or tiny imperfections—think of them as character, not flaws. These one-of-a-kind quirks are part of the charm.

While I design for wild hearts and bold spirits, please remember: natural stones can be a little tender. To keep your magic intact, remove your piece during high-energy activities—like intense workouts, heavy lifting, or skydiving (if you’re that kind of thrill-seeker). It’s also best to avoid extended dips in water, whether you’re surfing the sea or soaking in a long bath with moon salts.

Treat your jewels with care, and they’ll stay enchanted for many adventures to come. I wear my pieces nearly every day through all of my adventures and give it a light polish when I notice their sparkle is dulling.

IMPORTANT-BUT NOT SO GLAMOROUS-MAGIC NOTE

While the stones I work with are believed to carry energetic properties, they are not a substitute for medical advice, treatment, or therapy. Crystals can support your journey-but they don't replace science, doctors, or actual hydration. Listen to your intuition and your healthcare providers.

Stay magical, but stay grounded too.
