sporo- or spor-  prefix      Spore: sporocyte.   [Greek, from    spora, seed.]

 

The idea of using seeds to make jewelry is not a new one. What is fresh about spóra  is the use of seeds as an element in the composition of jewelry -- the combination of a rustic element with more "sophisticated" materials like semi-precious stones, freshwater pearls, and metals. Ironically, it is the organic beauty of these seeds that makes this handcrafted jewelry precious: original and unique.  

Seeds take us back to nature. They are charged with meaning: source, origin, birth, beginning, renewal, life... A seed in a necklace is a seed preserved into its symbol, a reminder of what is really precious in our planet earth -- the earth itself.

Spóra connects us to the environment and is eco-friendly, but most of all, spóra is about beauty -- it is affordable art to wear. These necklaces are an invitation: make yourself, and life, beautiful with art.
