SOLAIS- THE INSPIRATION

Komorebi- the space between the canopy and branches allows sunlight to gently filter through. In Japan, the dappled light this creates is called komorebi (pronounced koh-mo-reh-bee) and is made up of the kanji characters for tree (木), shine through (漏れ), and sun (日) ( from happiful.com)

Solais is inspired by the sensation of Komorebi- the feeling of golden sunlight dappling through green leaves. In Ireland, we are blessed with hundreds of varieties of beautiful green trees and ample countryside to enjoy this beautiful sensation in…

In the gorgeous countryside where I live, this sensation has inspired me to design an earthy green range with a golden glow to give that sense of peacefulness & wonder…..

I was hoping to find the perfect Aventurine pendant but our amazing stone cutters triumphed with these truly beautiful pendant stones. Paired with Exquisite Crystals that have a colour blend taking the darkest green to a golden glow

It all comes from an idea……designing is without a doubt the best part of the job!

Every little detail is agonized over before the design is finalized, and then the fun begins!
