Pre-Colombian Talisman

A patterned stone in violet with a brilliant gold center, surrounded by cinnabar.  The outer rim has a pattern of pale peach-tinted scallops against a background of blue, beige, orange, and gold.  Kinda weird.

Mobile Rainbow

Another tribute to days of yore:  a rainbow tinted half-circle of woven ('leather') inside a grass-green hoop slides swiftly across a track of pastel rainbow tints and teal.

The Book of Changes: Hexagram 43--The Proclamation

Finally we can start to get some clarity.  Once you know the facts, you can start to adapt to them.  It might take a few repetition though---reality not always being easy to conform to one's wishes. 

An octagon in violet and rose-tinted ceramic, limned with royal blue and gold, with a faint leafy border in green and blue-green.

The Rites of Spring

Pink lace with a---yes, because it's spring---satyrical theme.  Can you see what I mean?  Can you?  It's a tribute to the Horned God. Background is as black as the inside of the Great God Pan's mouth.

Book of Changes | Hexagram 54: The Preoccupation

BOOK OF CHANGES.  The original hexagram represents the marriage of a concubine and her entrance into her husband's house.  I've modernized it, though there is no real equivalent.  A traditional relationship will be impaired by the spouse's or significant other's preoccupation, even if the person being cheated on never learns about it.  An open marriage might survive if the spouse or significant other is sufficiently detached and sufficiently tactful.  Either way, these are pretty things that ought to be looked at, not enjoyed.

These are gems you won't find in any store.  The 'feminine' is a brilliant intense cobalt blue with markings like rose petals, framed in blue.  The 'masculine' is an intense leafy green with intensely royal blue petals, also framed in blue.

Book of Changes | Hexagram 16: Energetic Commitment (Two Versions)

BOOK OF CHANGES. A simple mandala in blue and beige/platinum with a rusty orange/cinnabar/red jade.  The central image is a 10-petalled flower surrounded by a single ring in cinnabar.  The outer 10 petals are square.  You can choose from a lovely luminous button or a more two dimensional version!

Book of Changes | Hexagram 61: Candid Heart; Honor

BOOK OF CHANGES.  A core of integrity and essentail honor protected from without. Red and chartreuse cloisonne ring surrounded by rings in chartreuse and spring green, and an outside ring in orange.  The innermost core is a delicate 'flower' or 'starflower' in shades of rose..  The rings are held together with pewter-colored clips.

Gathering Petals in Winter

HIPPIE ART:  Abstract slices of 'orange' within a ring of dark red and blue ceramic.  Background is mottled blue and green.  Colors of the 'plate' are platinum, gold, and bright orange.  There is a central 'flower' surrounded by 'petals.'

The contrasting/dissonant colors are very sixties/seventies.  Trust me:  I was there.

Book of Changes: Hexagram 50 (The Cooking Pot)

Gunmetal grey metal, ornamented with silver (with intimations of blue and rose).  Silver handles, a silver base, and a silver top.  The corners are ornamented with ornate fan-shaped metallic decorations. 

An auspicious hexagram, related to the notion of feeding the soul or intellect (in case you think they are distinct) of those of superior capability, provided they handle it properly.

Peach Blossom Fortunes

They don't really look like the blossoms of a peach tree:  instead, they are literally peach colored "flowers" (transparent pale yellow shading into authentic peach and coral pink) "painted" onto dark bronze stones.  The background is dark brown and peach.  They have a shiny ceramic look.

Star Orb

This one's meant to look like a drawing.  A metallic bronze tinted star with a gold center embedded in a blue and gold bauble.  The star is decorated with bits of blue " cloisonne."  It is really more of a Christmas image that didn't get posted, but it could do for other purposes as well.
