{"product_id":"awhisker-oyster-shell-eye-brooch-lovers-eye","title":"The Lover's Eye — Oyster Shell Eye Brooch \u0026 Pendant","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe shell did not open willingly. What was found inside had been accumulating there for longer than the shell had existed — a gaze that predates its own container. Six were recovered. Each holds a different eye: a different iris, a different depth of witness, a different arrangement of pearl and chain around the wound of looking. They can be pinned or suspended. The eye does not register the difference. It has been watching since before it was found, and it will continue after it is acquired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLore \u0026amp; Provenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lover’s Eye tradition held that a single eye could contain the entirety of devotion — excised, miniaturized, preserved. These relics do not miniaturize. The eye fills the shell completely, as though the nacre grew around the gaze rather than around an irritant. Six visages were catalogued. Each is a separate witness. None were painted for display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAnomalies \u0026amp; Forging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach shell retains its natural surface variation — uneven ridging, organic edge irregularity, and the faint iridescence of the nacre interior. Pearl and chain elements are hand-placed; their positioning varies across visages and constitutes part of each artifact’s archival identity. The artifact may be worn as a brooch or pendant necklace — each configuration presents the eye at a different angle to the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePhysical Composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Mixed-media — oyster shell with nacre interior, pearl, decorative chain elements\u003cbr\u003eWearable configurations: Brooch \/ Pendant necklace\u003cbr\u003eVariants: Visage I \/ Visage II \/ Visage III \/ Visage IV \/ Visage V \/ Visage VI\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eContainment Protocols\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep away from prolonged moisture exposure.
