The Cozy Collection: Sojourn Studio x Meredith Deanne
Porcelain Bone China accented with a kiln-fired 22k Gold Luster
18 inch 14k gold-filled chain
Heart is approximately ½ inch long.
All Sojourn Studio items are beautifully handcrafted by women artisans on the Thai-Myanmar border.
Each piece is unique and may vary slightly in design and in size. Pieces are delicate. Please handle as you would fine china. Metal findings may be cleaned with a polishing cloth. Porcelain may be washed with a mild soap. Take care not to scratch the 22k gold luster. The surface treatment can wear or fade over time and is susceptible to scratching.
About Sojourn Studio:
There is an amazing phrase spoken as a blessing over youth in Myanmar. Lay le ya is a Pwo Karen saying that means hope-filled forward motion.
We use clay as a starting point to work with women along the Thailand-Myanmar border. We form each porcelain piece, paint every metallic stroke, and assemble the pieces with 14k gold-filled and sterling silver fittings. Our intent in training artisans is not simply to make beautiful products, but to provide training in life skills, character education, and spiritual development so as to overcome obstacles and pursue a hope-filled future.
