Marchi Made It: jewelry and art

MarchiMadeIt's Shop Announcement

People ask, why wool jewelry? Wool is something that people live with in their home and on their body, but for some reason, they pause when it is jewelry. Wool is a beautiful sustainable resource. It has a richness and texture which is a pleasure to work with. It has a long history going back to nomads. It is light weight to wear. And I meet new people when I wear it because they are curious. They think it is stone, or shell, or even bone. On a personal level, the negative impact wool usage has on the earth and its inhabitants is minimal. This is important to me. I have worked with many materials which leave a dark trail of impact and I am not comfortable now with my legacy in this area. For me it is part of a whole life philosophy, which includes valuing healthy seasonal food, owning items which are meant to last (but not forever), and having true friends in my life which nurture my spirit. Wool is lovely and a pleasure to work with. I like that I can sculpt it and that it echos natural forms; and nature for me is the highest art which influences and inspires my creativity.

You may like to know my shop policies. If for some reason an item is not as you expected, you can exchange the item for credit in my store as long as you ship the original item back to me in excellent condition (ie the item has not been exposed to smoke, perfume, or a pet environment), and as long as you convo me your wish to return the item promptly after receiving it. I want you to be happy.
