| Inspired by nature's flawless sense of design,
this unique jewelry blends the timelessness of pearls with an organic
twist.
The peapod is a symbol of togetherness, as we know from the phrase "like
two peas in a pod". It is a metaphor suggesting unbreakable
bonds, making it a distinct embodiment of sentimental elegance.
Like many natural forms, there is a relationship shared between
the peapod's internal and external body. Freshwater pearls represent
the soft tenderness of the peas, while oxidized sterling silver
acts as the protective casing of the pod. Through this combination
of oposing characteristics, there grows a balance allowing vulnerability
and strength to merge.
Created by jewelry designer Johanna Becker-Black, all pieces are
handmade in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The artist, a graduate from the
Rhode Island School of Design, is a Santa Fe native, a world traveler,
and an admirer of nature's brilliance. |
