FLIGHT Feather Pendant Necklace
Sterling silver feather pendant necklace, handcrafted on the Isle of Arran by Jess MacDonald Brass.
Across the world and across centuries, the feather has been considered sacred. A symbol of the sky, of freedom, of the spirit. From the Americas to Asia, from ancient Egypt to the islands of the Pacific - cultures that never met each other still looked at a feather and saw the same thing: something that connects us to what lies beyond.
Today, feathers are still carried as spiritual symbols the world over - found at moments of significance, kept as signs that someone is near.
Look closely at a feather. Pull the barbs apart and it falls to pieces. Slide your fingers back along the shaft and it comes together again - strong enough to carry a bird through the air. Fragile and resilient. Both at once.
"Let me be as a feather. Strong with purpose yet light at heart, able to bend. And, though I might become frayed, able to pull myself together again." - Anita Sams
For the one who carries someone with them. For the one finding their way back. For the one ready to fly.

My jewellery is individually hand-crafted or made in small batch production which is hand-finished - this is reflected in the final finish of each piece. This means that it will not be the same as machine made or mass-produced jewellery. Instead, it gives each of my designs a special artisanal touch.
