Hummingbird Circle - Golden Bronze & Blue Topaz

108 beads. One intention. A meditation in form. 

This Hummingbird Circle carries a brighter fire. Cast in golden bronze and patina kissed, she feels like a morning light breaking through a cloud. I carved her as a moment of suspension ... wings held still for a breath as she leans toward a bloom. A blue topaz stone rests in her eye, capturing that flash of sky you glimpse when a hummingbird darts past. 

The reverse side holds an original motif, rooted in ancient Earth. A tribute to the earliest artistic marks that connected humans to the natural world, carved from imagination and instinct. Just as I do today. 

For her strand I chose blue topaz, mother of pearl, and yellow jackfruit wood beads. Together they create a rhythm that feels both airy and grounded. Raw bronze spacer beads keeps the texture organic, and the mala culminates in a traditional bronze guru bead before blowing back into a hand tied silk tassel. 

This mala carries warmth, fluidity, and a sense of joyful motion ~ the essence of the hummingbird translated into form. 

Joy, lightheartedness and adaptability.
Tiny healer, guide me through the storm.
Lead me to resiliency.
Sipping from the sweet nectar of life.
