Value -vs- Artistry

Lately I’ve been sitting with a question that won’t let me go:
Is the value in the metal—or in the maker?

I’ve always worked in silver because it felt like freedom. It allowed scale, color, boldness, experimentation. Silver let ideas move quickly from my head into form. Gold, for a long time, felt stiff to me—interesting only when paired with diamonds, preciousness doing the heavy lifting instead of creativity.

But now silver prices are climbing, and I’d be lying if I said it hasn’t stirred something in me. Fear, yes—but also clarity.

My partner and I recently talked about currency. How money isn’t backed by gold anymore, but by faith and trust. And all I could think was: isn’t that what art is too? We agree something has value because we believe it does.

At the same time, my social feeds have been flooding me with maximalist dressers and artists using unconventional materials—big, colorful, technically exciting work that stopped me in my tracks. Not because of precious metals, but because of vision, skill, and daring.

Then I remembered something spiritual that I had tucked away. Obatala once told me to work in other metals. I didn’t understand it then. Maybe I wasn’t supposed to—until now.

God speaks in a language you understand. Sometimes through conversation. Sometimes through fear. Sometimes through rising prices.

So here’s where I land:
My creativity is the currency.
The metal is the medium—not the message.

That doesn’t mean silver stops mattering. It means it isn’t the only place my voice can live.

For now, the silver jewelry currently on the website remains at its original prices. No adjustments. No urgency tactics. Just transparency.

If a piece has been calling you, now is a beautiful moment to claim it—before the conversation shifts again.

Explore the current silver collection while prices remain unchanged.

This is an ongoing dialogue—for me, and for you.
Thank you for being part of it.
