The Moonrise Heron Pendant — Forest Moon Collection
Under moonlight and starlight, where wild places breathe and ancient waters hold quiet secrets — the Forest Moon Collection honors the night, the hush, and the spirit of the untamed.
Each piece is hand-forged in sterling and fine silver and features natural turquoise. Textured silver, warm copper moons, and hand-sawn imagery — no casts, no shortcuts — only true metalsmith craft.
Designed as talismans of wilderness, intuition, and reverence for the more-than-human world.
In the stillness of night, The Moonlight Heron stands — poised between water and sky, keeper of the quiet where moonlight touches riverbanks and reeds whisper in the dark. Hand-sawn in sterling silver, this moonlit heron lifts one foot in timeless patience beneath a rising copper moon. Below, natural turquoise glows like water under dusk — soft blues and mossy greens recalling marsh pools and calm river shallows.
A one-of-a-kind talisman of intuition, balance, and serene strength — honoring the wisdom found in stillness, and the clarity that comes when we move through the world with patience and grace.

READY TO SHIP
This item is one-of-a-kind and completed. It may take up 1 week to ship. If it is ordered with a "made to order" item, then the shipping will default to the longer timeline.
ABOUT THE MATERIALS
Specific materials used in this item will be listed above. All materials used are solid materials and are nickel free. There is not plated material in my work. Sterling silver is often labeled as .925 silver. This means that 7.5% copper has been added to the silver to make it stronger and more suitable for regular wear. Most pieces contain a maker's mark along with the .925 stamp, where possible. All pieces are comprised of sterling silver and the bezels are fine silver (.999%)
JEWELRY CARE
To properly care for your one-of-a-kind piece, take care while wearing as natural stones can be delicate. To prolong the life of your piece (which was handcrafted as an heirloom-quality piece), I suggest you remove it while swimming, rock climbing, cliff jumping, sky diving or whatever other crazy and rigorous adventure you may find yourself on!
The best way to clean your jewelry is to use a clean, soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently remove fingerprints, dirt, residue, and oils. I prefer the Sunshine Polishing Cloth. Avoid using any harsh chemicals or jewelry cleaners as these can damage the surface of the stone or remove the patina on your piece. When not in use, store your piece in a cool, dry place. Pro Tip: put your sterling silver pieces in a bag with Silica Gel packets to prevent tarnishing.
