Valentine’s Day – Hearts Forever
EVERY DAY IS VALENTINES DAY!
'In Good Company'
These individually hand carved Alabaster Gem Hearts are about honoring the Earth, recognizing ourselves as part of the Earth, healing our own Hearts and Heart connections. To hold one is to feel comforted, cared for, loved. They remind us that we are part of an infinitely varied, wondrous Universe, that we both, the Alabaster Gem Hearts and us humans and all life are born of the same stardust.
Should I say what’s truly on my mind or not………..Oh, what the heck…….I will……….
For 35 years Paul and I have hand gathered rare colored and translucent Alabaster Gems from the great Deserts of the Southwest. We climb over canyon walls, pry cherished pieces of rare gemstone out of cliff faces, harvest treasures hiding in secret Earth places. Just us. No machines.
This is not a ‘rape of the Earth’ mining operation that rips the skin and bowels of our planet apart for profit. There is no factory of slaves, over the border sweat shops, abuse of human rights or Mother Earth. It’s just Paul and me, gathering this rare gem Alabaster and handcarving each piece to reveal its unique and extravagant beauty.
We are about honoring the Earth and making an honest living with our hands and hearts. We are about the sacredness of life and the gift of the creative process that has captured us for so long. We are about sharing with others all these gifts that we have received and created.
Alabaster is stone. It is gem. It is forever. Maybe the Alabaster Gem Heart that you purchase for your loved one who passes it onto their children, who passes it onto their children……will last forever too. “Hearts Forever”!
