Needles
The needle has a simple, elegant, linear form. It is one of humankind's oldest tools, replete with rich folkloric symbolism.

All- Eye pendant is inspired by my sculpture "The Needles' Eye".
The Needles' Eye is made up of two intertwining needles that create an eye that watches the viewer as well as creating a window for the viewer to view the world.
