Elisa Solomon Jewelry “Peace and Love” Ring
Elisa Solomon Jewelry Fetish Animal Bracelet
“If someone thinks that love and peace is a cliche that must have been left behind in the Sixties, that’s his problem. Love and peace are eternal.”
John Lennon quotes swirl through my mind and drive my creations on a daily basis. “I believe in what I do, and I’ll say it.” My jewelry line, Elisa Solomon Jewelry, has strong roots in the Hippie Generation. While we may not howl at the moon or participate in psychedelic light shows anymore, we can still wear the beauty of peace and love. These ideals deserve thought in 2008.
Fringe! Layers of beads! Tie dye! Hair! Daisy chains! American flags! Wildly decorated guitars!
These icons turn into tangible objects in my 18 karat gold and sterling silver jewelry collection. Native American lore says that carrying a carved stone animal fetish will enable the possessor to inhabit the animal’s “powers.” Wearing my jewelry is a reminder of pleasurable and demonstrative parts of American life. I hope you continue to “Turn on, tune in” (though don’t “drop out”), as Timothy Leary said, and read my posts.
