The story of Eilisain really begins when I found the name, Eilisain (I-li-sean) at a Celtic fair, I went to a booth where you can have your name translated into Gaelic. Of course I was curious and had my name, Lisette translated and thus is Eilisain meaning "Consecrated to God". I have always found cultural mythologies fascinating; creation stories and how varied and yet similar they are. Eilisain
seemed so appropriate for my future jewelry business. Eilisain Jewelry represents my fascination and appreciation for myth stories and the power and understanding we receive from applying them to our own lives. Every piece of Eilisain jewelry is handcrafted by me using found animal parts, rough coral and gemstones, animal teeth, and of course the alchemial properties of metal. My hope is to provide the wearer of Eilisain jewelry the vitality of myth and belief that objects (adornment) can transform their perspective and appearance.
