“Eternity Shield”
“The Lord is my strength and my shield;
My heart trusts and I am helped.”
Psalm 28:7
This is the verse that inspires me so much on this piece. So the cross is made up of four shields and encircled by the eternity circle of protection. This represents the protection that Lord has promises us. The shield is done in orange, golden, and green colors and again accented by 23k gold.

This is done with a purple background. The “C” is done with a slight reminder of the Celtic knotwork.
I had just finished reading one of those great books about Henry VIII England so I was really in the mood for knots and crowns.
I just love hearts and all shapes really including the beautiful gold diamond in the middle!
A beautiful piece inspired by the work of the ancient manuscripts. The letter is inlayed with 23k gold and has spirals and knots throughout.
