"Trailing Clouds of Glory" - variation ii - Natural Mother of Pearl, Brass and Bronze - Handmade Chaplet
"Not in entire forgetfulness,
And not in utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds of glory do we come
From God, who is our home."
— William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
This shapely crucifix is handcast from a vintage piece, in solid bronze.
The Pater pendant is a disk of lovely iridescent shell, alongside a bead of solid French brass.
The Aves are luminescent natural mother of pearl — a favorite of ours — with wonderful swirls of cream and beige — they seem to glow from within. Among the Aves are solid brass beads, and translucent matte glass beads in pale lavender and pink.
The wire wrap and connecting rings are all solid bronze. The chaplet is strung on premium quality Soft Flex jewelers’ cable composed of 49 strands of steel encased in nylon; each end is double-crimped for security.
