The Power of Myth
Eilisain Jewelry represents my fascination and appreciation for myth stories and
the power and understanding we receive from applying them to our own lives.
Every piece of Eilisain jewelry is handcrafted using found animal parts, rough coral and gemstones, animal teeth, and of course the alchemial properties of metal. My hope is to provide you with jewelry that carries the vitality of myth and belief that objects (adornment) can transform your perspective and appearance.
The story of Eilisain really begins when I found the name, Eilisain (I-li-sean) at a Celtic fair, I went to a booth where you can have your name translated into Gaelic. Of course I was curious and had my name, Lisette translated and thus is Eilisain meaning "Consecrated to God". I have always found cultural mythologies fascinating; creation stories and how varied and yet similar they are. Eilisain seemed so appropriate for my future jewelry business.
The Hunted II - Large Faux Gauge Owl Talon Earrings
The Hunted II - Large Faux Gauge Owl Talon Earrings
Call upon the power and strength of birds of prey with talon earrings. You'll feel fierce, edgy and very cool! There is a lovely delicate and striking combination of oxidized (blackened) sterling silver or bronze and high shine of the talon.
Earrings measure 2 inches in total length, and 8mm thick. Sits comfortably in earlobe. These are not for the faint of heart and are a bit weighty however they are comfortable to wear. And these are 'faux' gauge earrings - you can wear either the talon or end of talon on the outside of your ear. A small rubber insert is placed for snug wearability of earrings.
Earrings also come with a set of earring backs for versatility.
**Owl Symbology: "To the ancient Greeks the owl was associated with the goddess Athena, and it was a symbol of higher wisdom. To the early Christian Gnostics the owl is associated with Lilith, the first wife of Adam who refused to be submissive to him. Owl Medicine is symbolically associated with clairvoyance, astral projection and magic, both black and white." - Ted Andrews, Animal Speak book.
