A blessing that accompanies the child over the years
Saint Teresa, a spiritual friend for life
An original and inspiring gift for a birth
A NOTE FROM THE DESIGNER
A birth is for me the arrival of a miracle in the ordinary of days. I imagined this medal as a blessing that remains, beyond the first years that pass so quickly. Entrusting a child to Saint Thérèse of Lisieux is giving them a friend for life, a tender presence beside this brand new little soul.

Designed as a birth or baptism gift meant to last through the years, this medal places the child under the gentle protection of Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus. Her portrait is adorned with a very soft pink and a cloud of gold leaf glitter, evoking that "shower of roses" by which Saint Thérèse promised to pour out her graces from Heaven. So many graces symbolically bestowed upon the child's cradle. The creation is sent in a floral organza bag, accompanied by a scented card with a spiritual quote, to be kept as a bookmark.

Our little daughter was born with a disability, and we received this medal of Saint Thérèse at her birth. In moments of worry, it became for us a sign of trust and gentleness near her cradle. It reminds us to entrust her journey, simply, day after day. A. J.

From sculpture to jewelry
UNIQUE EXPERTISE
For over twenty years, I have worked with clay, wax, bronze, wood, glass, and gold on a very large scale. I have miniaturized all of this expertise into jewelry, with the same sense of spatial arrangement. A sculpture needs empty space around it to sing; a piece of jewelry is a dialogue between an outer form and the treasure it contains.
Giving a gift is a gesture of love. We take great care with your orders and also offer you a lovely selection of boxes, gift wrap, or bags to highlight your thoughtful gesture.
