This pelican collection lived in my mind for years before we could cast it into something physical, something I could hold in my hand, something we could wear. I was making jewelry, but my skillset and equipment kept me limited to very small two-dimensional. This pelican, though, wouldn’t leave me alone. For years, I sketched, dreamt, sculpted, and tried to bring it to life however I could. Years later, when we finally had the equipment and barely the know-how to begin lost wax casting, the pelican was the first piece I’d carve and bring to three-dimensional form. The pelican is a symbol of home, for sure, for any Louisianan, but also a symbol of homecoming. The cuff measures about 1-1/4" tall. The SMALL size measures approximately 7" in circumference including a 1" gap to slip it on. The MEDIUM is approximately 7-3/4" in circumference including a 1" gap to slip it on. Made by hand in our South Louisiana studio. Each piece varies slightly due to its handmade nature. *Note: Sterling Silver prices may
