What if an eye isn’t only a way of seeing, but a way of feeling, where what enters through sight lingers and turns inward.
This piece slid into that space somewhere along the way. It wasn’t something I planned. It began as two ideas my client loved, a cloud and an eye, and over months of wax forming, stone selection, casting, and setting, they came together.
A cobalt blue spinel is set at the center, held within an eye of diamonds. The top lashes form a cloud set with blue sapphires, while on the bottom I kept the “lashes”, curling downward, set with diamonds. A little wild, but tried to keep it elegant.
There are a few stories sitting inside it.
In Sikh poetry, “nainahu neer vahai” speaks of eyes overflowing with tears. I see it as that same inward movement, where sight turns into feeling and feeling spills over, where what is seen and what is felt are no longer separate.
Across cultures, the Evil Eye represents protection and awareness, from Greek traditions to Ancient Egypt, where the eye carries meanings of healing and watchfulness. The cloud, in many Eastern traditions, holds a sense of abundance, the feeling that something good is about to arrive.
All of it sits here together. Protection, longing, grace, or maybe just form, instinct, and feeling.
I keep looking at it and it keeps shifting.
What do you see?
Wishing my Sikh friends a joyful Vaisakhi, a happy Songkran, and a beautiful Easter to those celebrating ✨🧿👁️
