I built the sterling silver setting by hand, allowing the metal to sweep around and beyond the fossil in a continuation of its movement. A smaller spiral at the top echoes the form once again, carrying that ancient geometry into the structure of the pendant itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe result became \u003cstrong\u003eSomewhere\u003c\/strong\u003e—a piece that feels to me as though it belongs simultaneously to the past and to someplace beyond it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eAmmonites lived in prehistoric seas millions of years ago. Their spiral shells remain one of nature's most recognizable forms, while Ammolite brings extraordinary flashes of color to this particular specimen.
