JUST ME: The Home is the first piece in a collection created for the chapter that comes after survival.
UNBROKEN was about making it through. RESURGENT was about rising again. JUST ME is about finally reaching a place where peace no longer feels impossible, where you can stand inside your own life and say:
No war today. I am home.
At the center of this one-of-a-kind pendant is a long, luminous labradorite, chosen for its strength, depth, and shifting blue-green light. A hand-forged copper circle surrounds the stone, symbolizing the journey of coming full circle without pretending the difficult chapters never happened.
Two offset copper bars are engraved with the words:
JUST ME
NO WAR TODAY
Hidden on the back is an engraved rose, a quiet reminder that after all that shit, we still bloomed. 🌹
Every part of this pendant was cut, shaped, engraved, soldered, hammered, finished, and assembled by hand in my studio. The organic textures, darkened copper, visible tool marks, and subtle imperfections are intentional parts of its character. This is not factory-made jewelry pretending to have a story. It carries the evidence of the hands that built it.

The copper will naturally continue to deepen and change with time, creating a patina unique to the person who wears it. A soft jewelry cloth can be used to brighten raised areas while preserving the darker details.
This piece is for the person who fought hard to survive, found the courage to rise, and is finally learning that home can be something built inside themselves.
I survived. I rose. I came home to myself.
And today?
No war today.
