Sculpture

Sculpture
The ART of Natural Hair African Venus” was created by the sculptor Charles Henri Joseph Cordier in bronze in 1851. The sculpture was created as a companion piece to an earlier work created by Charles Cordier entitled “Said Abdullah of the Mayac, Kingdom of the Darfur”. The model was a young African woman by the name of Seïd Enkess who was a former slave in France. Both busts became popular after France abolished slavery in 1848. Charles Cordier himself was sympathetic to the abolitionist movement and believed in the beauty and equality of all races.

African Red Coral Kissess


She asks, " Can you make me a neckless and earring set"?  I reply, "Sure, I can.  What colors do you like?"  She says, "Any colors are fine. Colors that will help rid this broken heart".  I think to myself, OH NO!

I browse through my beads and decide on Red Coral & Turquoise.  Red Coral represents love and happiness and of course turquoise  represents  master healing and has a communication quality.  Yes, yes of course.  Just what she needs to heal that broken heart.

I created this set for the second time. A few years ago and now.  Hoping this set will  help her feel a surge of confidence, self esteem and sensuality. She can dresss it up or down.  I say, rock it with a pair of tight jeans and a white shirt.
  Always remember that Self Love is one of the greatest loves.  Without it, there is no healing or moving forward.  Therefore, this is a gift to you my friend, as a symbol of a lifetime of self love, happiness and the opening of new doors..

Peace, Love & Blessings,
Alisa
