These brass wire wrapped cages remind me of the tangled web of deceit and darkness which ensnares the hearts of mankind. I envisioned hearts imprisoned within them, blinded by their bonds and utterly unable to escape on their own. I created the two wire-wrap cage pendants with hearts within them to show how our hearts are bound before we come to the Cross.
Then I created a pendant which shows that with Christ, there is freedom. The heart which was formerly enslaved is now set free, thanks to the Cross of Christ.
The pendants consist of oxidized brass wire wrapped cages and Swarovski crystal hearts, with a cross on the bottom-most pendant.
This is a very, very special design loaded with symbolism and meaning. I hope you enjoy wearing it as much as I enjoyed making it.

“Jesus said, "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. [32] Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”
- From John Chapter 8
“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”
- Galatians 5:1
“But now that you have been set free from sin… the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
- Romans 6:22-23
