I've always lived my life on the sea and let my thoughts and emotions get pulled with the tides.
This one-of-a-kind design features a hand-cut sterling silver crescent, which I hand-cut the phases of the moon out. Choice of polished rainbow moonstone or faceted labradorite cabochon set as the full moon. The crescent flows downward to a small sterling drop, finished with matching gemstone cabochon. 24 inch long sterling chain. This is an eye-catching necklace and can easily be dressed up or down.
The crescent is one of the oldest symbols known to humanity. Together with the sun, it appeared on Akkadian seals as early as 2300 BC. In ancient symbolism, the moon represents the beyond. It is often considered to rule the senses and emotions. The Moon serves as an illumination in the darkness, and helps us track the passing of time, we can accurately predict the moon phase and have been able to do so for thousands of years, so the moon can represent emotional and spiritual growth and journeys, and also the emergence of understanding.

Caleb Barnaby is a self-taught metalsmith, with a focus in extremely detailed wearable art. He's been traveling throughout the US for the past three years in a travel trailer, which houses his custom-built mobile studio, selling his creations at fine art festivals. Many of his designs are award-winning: intricate flower mandalas made from sterling silver and recycled brass bullet casings with secret messages, crescent moons and mountain ranges hand-cut from the metal. His designs are all inspired by the natural elements around us: blooming wildflowers on the side of the road, the awe-inspiring landscapes he sees along his travels.
"Using recycled metals, I apply an intricate etching process to give them an ornate look. All of my etched designs are original and inspired by natural elements (trees, flowers and sacred geometry). After the etching process, I hand-cut the metals to transform them into their final composition. I also use non-traditional stonesetting techniques, where I create my own bezels by forging the metal to set the stone."
