A Knight Has His Armor, And I My JuwelsšŸ’Ž I wear juwelry like a talisman—for me and me only. If others gravitate to it , great.. but that’s a personal calling. Juwelry isn’t a show. It’s an adornment. I adorn myself for those that came before me, because gold has meant many things to my ancestors, ā€œvalueā€ being a strong one. I wear it to remind myself everyday that I am of value. That I hold space that matters. That what once was so unattainable is in my simple reach. Thank you catbirdnyc for asking me to be apart of your self portrait series. I’ve always loved your pieces and this is still a bit surreal to me. Much gratitude to the entire team and my city šŸ’˜ #AD #Catbirdstacks
