Meaning

Dublin: This knot, with its triangular pattern forming three separate sections, is a variation of the trinity motif. It represents unity divided into male and female; the mother, maiden, and crone; and the past, present, future. The trinity motif, when placed back to back, forms interesting additional patterns as shown in some of the items in the collection. These additional symbols include a lemniscates, the infinity symbol; and an oval with pointed ends, which could represent creativity focused intensely on a single intent.

Designer

Mary

From an early age, Mary became interested in drawing and the art world. As a teenager, she started working three-dimensionally with clay and sculpture. She’s always loved to work with her hands and enjoyed framing pictures, painting interiors and designing neon. While living in Tulsa, OK, she was commissioned to paint portraits and in 1995 this brought her to Santa Fe.

She started working for Reflective Images in 1996, learning to make jewelry from Helen, and helping her with production. Five years later, she was creating her own pieces.

Her pieces in the collection are more angular, bold, and somewhat tribal. She’s a registered member of the Chickasaw tribe and that Native American influence is represented in some of her jewelry.

Mary left Reflective Images in 2005, leaving jewelry to work in another medium: brass sculpture. She works at Shidoni, a foundry located just north of Santa Fe.

We seriously want you to wear our jewelry for the rest of your life. We unconditionally guarantee everything we make for as along as you own it. Guarantee includes free repair or replacement for breakage that may occur during normal use.

We will not fix our jewelry if you abuse it – such as driving a Harley over a bracelet. Having your local jeweler try to fix one of our pieces may also void the warranty.

If there’s an issue, just send the piece back. We highly recommend that you use UPS, FEDEX or DHL and not the US post office so that the package can be easily insured and tracked.
