one of a kind 'open sesame' talisman moon wall hanging

each & every piece of these wall hangings are cut, cleaned, sanded, designed, fired three times, & glazed by hand. the talisman, moon, desert, & sea pieces series are all fairly chunky & glazed with beautiful, full range colors; some with crackles, some with speckles & all unique. my talisman series all have at least one ceramic piece that includes gorgeous gold lustre glaze as well.  this piece is strung on gold leather cord & it comes ready to hang.  these pieces range in length from 8-24".  all of my glazes are non-toxic. 

perfect for your art wall, office, door, nursery, garden nook, reading library, or any other room needing some lovely wall work! these are in my studio & ready to ship.

my moon, desert & ocean series is an ongoing exploration of my love for our oceans, the constellations, solar system, & our place in these mysterious wonders of our world. this piece is inspired by this quote:

“Talismans are reminders of what is felt but not seen, what is so, but not immediately obvious.”
― Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women who run with the wolves

"Love is the vital essence that pervades & permeates, from the center to the circumference, the graduating circles of all thought and action.  Love is the talisman of human weal & woe - the open sesame to every soul." --Elizabeth Cady Stanton

A talisman is something thought to be imbued with some magical property. It can both protect, and radiate power, and is often used in ritual...talismans are active tools meant to draw specific benefits (like luck, courage, or healing) to the bearer.

...a talisman is specifically created as a conduit for energy—designed to harness, radiate, and channel power rather than just provide passive defense.
