We got married 43 years ago in the smallest, thin gold bands. As we pursued jobs, opportunities, I…read morebought myself a hefty platinum ring with a nearly perfect one carat diamond. I wore it as almost social armor, but never connected it to my heart, my soul and as removed from my husband as a cold, white star. I gave the ring to my sweet momma. Years passed. We raised two children, bought a big old river farm. On a short little trip, we headed to Asheville: interesting, but not our vibe. I picked up a brochure and found Visions of Creation. On a whim, I slid a curvy band and artist made set onto my finger. It felt like it had been there all my life. Visions of Creation makes every other jewelry seem hollow. Every piece seems to carry heft, while being elegant. We are planning a trip back to Black Mountain. A visit to this magical place gives me something to look forward to.
