The Cup of Stars - Necklace - Made to Order

"Don't do it, Eleanor told the little girl; insist on your cup of stars; once they have trapped you into being like everyone else you will never see your cup of stars again; don't do it; and the little girl glanced at her, and smiled a little subtle, dimpling, wholly comprehending smile, and shook her head stubbornly at the glass.”

- Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

My vision of the cup of stars. A tea cup of stars. With stars on the bottom and on the outside, with a small little key on the bottom reminiscent of the skeleton key of Hill House.

I see the cup of stars as a symbol of endurance and strength, a celebration of our own individuality and creativity. A reminder to never let anything or anyone obliterate our hopes and dreams. To never give up on ourselves.

May our cups always be full of stars.

I was supposed to have the cup of stars and key ready to launch with the Stella Collection but due to several delays out of my control it was not possible, the cup of stars is probably the most difficult piece I have ever made and I’m so happy and proud of it. After so many tries here it is in its whole glory.

The cup of stars weights around 13gm.

Made to order, turnaround from 4 to 8 weeks.

All the sterling silver items I create are tested, hallmarked and certified at the assay offices of Imprensa Nacional da Casa da Moeda

Please keep in mind due to the handmade nature of my pieces the one you get might be slightly different and with its own personality, use it mindfully to avoid snagging, bending or breaking.

To store and clean your new piece, I will provide you not only with a jewelry box but also a polishing wipe.
