Nyx Triskelion
"His hands tightened around mine. “I love you,” he said. “I love you more than any other creature, because you are cruel, and kind, and alive. Nyx Triskelion, will you be my wife?”
I knew it was insane to be happy, to feel this desperate exultation at his words. But I felt like I had been waiting all my life to hear them. I had been waiting, all my life, for someone undeceived to love me. And now he did, and it felt like walking into the dazzling sunlight of the Heart of Earth.
Except that the sunlight was false, and his love was real." - Cruel Beauty, Rosamund Hodge
Named for the character of the person who requested this necklace, the Nyx Triskelion is an elegant addition to the Byzantine line.
I begin by subjecting stainless steel chain to high temperatures ranging from 400-630F. This gives them a dark, subtly iridescent feel that mimics the night sky without light pollution. I then fashion the links into my unique and best-selling Byzantine pattern, which was inspired by ancient Byzantine jewelry and collars. I then attach round kyanite along the edge.
The resulting necklace has a wonderful weight along your neck and chimes softly as you move. The steel construction makes it durable enough to play with, for those who fidget with their jewelry.
