“I was inspired by the powerful legacy of ancient Egyptian women who could rise to the highest role in society – as Pharoah. This revelation challenged my assumptions about history and compelled me to honor that strength and sovereignty through my work. I chose a translucent stone to capture the inner radiance of such a figure. Its glow symbolizes not only beauty, but the enduring power and presence of a woman who ruled with clarity, strength, and light.”
