The Tarot in Jewelry~22 interpretations

[Chronata]

I have this weird project I have been working on, and was wondering about your opinions.

I thought it might be sort of cool to make 22 necklaces...each one, a one of a kind sculptural piece,and each an interpretation of a Major card.

I have just finished the first 10, and will have the photos up later tonight.

I have been doing quite a few of these "ephemeral tarots" lately, and I really like the idea of looking at them from a fresh perspective. Also, like doing them sort of quickly...and with no intention of there ever being a deck in the traditional sense.

Well, my opinion is they're both clever and wonderful - and to put my money where my mouth is, if the Star is ever up for sale I'd like first refusal

And Jes (my daughter) really likes the Death!

 

[Chronata]

Thanks PathWalker!

My thought was to possibly sell them after I have them all up here.I will keep you in mind for the Star! None of them will be more than $25.

I need to do a fundraiser for my spouse, who needs some medication
(and also so I can afford to send all the tarotstone sets I finished!)

 

[Manda]

Those are brilliant! I love them!

 

[Chronata]

Two more from this first set...

Chronata, your brilliance just doesn't stop, does it? After all your lovely decks, and the tarot stones, now this. I like it! You sure give a new look at tarot each and every time.

Love, love, love the Moon! They are all so innovative and so condensed with the symbols, yet completely recognizable. That is VERY cool and a great talent!
