Descendence 12.20 Recipe

Mix by Ghenee Sherer and Jordan Williamson

CUSTOM MIX OF MIYUKI 8/0 SEED BEADS, HALF TILAS, AND CUBE

As we wrap up yet another year, we’re prone to reminiscing…so much has happened, so many memories made. Where have we come from to get us to this new beginning?

Descendence is a sublime mix inspired by the December babies and their three traditional birthstones. Curated by Ghenee and Jordan, the mix pays homage to Blue Zircon, Turquoise, and Tanzanite. Passed down for generations, birthstones are thought to have originated with the Book of Exodus. Incredibly, we still use many of these traditions today…like in this mix! The name the girls chose, "Descendence," is an homage to the essence of our descendants and how they live through us today.
