This small spherical pendant keeps a secret. The orb’s parallel slats serve to conceal a window in the the shape of a heart, that is visible from only one angle, providing a covert keepsake.
Travel inspires contemplation of one’s place in the world. We may leave the people and places we know and love, but we carry our past experiences with us. Special objects worn close to the body serve not only as reminders, but as tangible incarnations of memories. They are personal, private and precious. The orb is symbolic of a wide world beyond…the globe, the planets, the stars, and the secret window hidden within is a mark of individual experience – a memory trapped, a moment held, but kept to oneself, obscured from view.
