Description
A small sterling silver shell, cast directly from a real shell, set beside a 4mm aquamarine on a 3mm band. The shell's natural texture comes through in the silver — every ridge and curve exactly as found.
About Aquamarine
Aquamarine is a blue-green variety of beryl, its color ranging from the palest sky to a deeper sea glass. Long associated with the ocean and safe travel across water, sailors historically carried it as a protective talisman. It is the birthstone for March. A fitting stone for this collection.
The Story Behind the Collection
Darya is a Persian name meaning sea. Every piece in this collection starts in wax — hand carved, then cast in sterling silver. The charms are small by design. Tide pool small. The kind of thing you might find tucked in a crevice at low tide if you're paying attention.
Growing up on the coast of Maine, I spent a lot of time paying attention. Tide pools, rocky beaches, the particular quality of light on the water at different hours. The ocean has been my happy place for as long as I can remember, and this collection is the closest I know how to get to carrying it with me. Snorkeling, sea creatures, the textures of the shoreline — that's what these pieces are made from.
A portion of proceeds from this collection supports Surfrider Foundation.
