“The quieter you become, the more you allow yourself to see."
-Rumi
This piece captures the serene beauty of a white water lily and a dragonfly set against a backdrop of blue water and green lily pads. The imagery and quote together evoke a sense of tranquility and the importance of mindfulness and reflection.
Rumi, a 13th-century Persian poet, often explored themes of inner peace and self-awareness. This particular quote speaks to the power of silence and introspection. In our busy lives, it’s easy to be overwhelmed by noise and distractions. Rumi reminds us that by becoming quieter and more mindful, we can truly see and understand the world around us. It’s in these moments of quiet reflection that we gain clarity, insight, and a deeper connection to ourselves and our surroundings.
Perfect for anyone who values the calming influence of nature and the wisdom found in stillness, this piece is a gentle reminder to pause and appreciate the quiet moments in life.
Bring a touch of serenity into your home or gift it to someone special.
Size: Approximately 5¼" x 8½" x 1¾" - akin to the size of a novel
Materials: Glass enamel on copper, formed around a heavy wood core
Every Spiritile is made painstakingly by hand in Houston Llew's studio in Charleston, South Carolina. The glass is applied to one side of the metal using stencils and relying on precise layering with hand sifters. The piece is only fired once. After firing, a pin is rolled over the enameled metal to form intentional crazing marks in the glass. Although it goes against the medium's traditional teachings, Houston says this technique creates increased light refraction, particularly in the transparent glass.
Spiritiles look great alone or in a group. They can be hung on the wall or set on a flat surface without the aid of an easel or stand. They are quite sturdy and can withstand direct sun and covered outdoor environments (we recommend bringing them inside during extreme weather).
