The Amazonia Necklace
Once I had a dream. I dreamed up a collection that would tell the history of the most important forest in the world and portray its unique beauty. This forest, Amazonia, happens to be in my native country, Brazil.
The back of the Amazonia Necklace tells a sad, but true story. As the fire hits the Amazon, the leaves brown and die. They have holes and lifeless edges, and the animals can no longer exist. It’s real and terrifying, and it’s a reality created by man.
The front of the piece is a celebration of the Amazon in its natural state. Brazilian Paraiba tourmalines sparkle like water droplets on the lush foliage. The native animals are flourishing. This is the Amazon as it should be.
The Amazonia Necklace is the centerpiece and muse for the entire collection.
Three years ago, the Amazon was engulfed by devastating fires. That’s when I felt compelled to do something. My heart was hurting, and I couldn’t sleep, thinking about how mankind could inflict such damage on Mother Nature’s most bio-diverse land.
This collection means so much to me. I’m donating 10% of the proceeds directly to the Rainforest Trust, where funds are used where they’re needed most, directly on the grounds of the Rain Forest.
