Celestial Empathy Bracelets and Necklaces
$19.00 - $32.00
This line of handmade Nigerian designed bracelets and necklaces is a part of the African Ode collection with brilliant stones from Rhode Island and Georgia in colors of clouds, stars, and silver linings. The pattern is designed to highlight angels and other celestial beings, all of which are known for a spiritual level of empathy, a key component of Esan faith. Esan is a small tribe in south central Nigeria. Ada is the youngest member of the Esan tribe in the United States.
This celestial subset of the African Ode collection took Ada approximately 5 days to design based on Dr. Jason Okonofua's description of Celestial Empathy, a special kind of perspective-taking that is spiritual in nature. Research shows that across the major religions there lies a message of empathy, listening, and kindness for kindness sake. This kind of empathy draws on powerful beliefs in faith, science, and intuition to provide a mindfulness that is seemingly automatic or implicit. This is marked in the translucent way the stones bend light as it passes through. The theme is developed from research from Stanford University and published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
