Where, Who You Are

Where, Who You Are, 2021 Pendant by Shannon Shiang.
Shannon explains, “Made for the Renegade Burn, this piece represents our culture and principals in an ancient coin, spinning round in any direction signifying the troubled times in 2020 to 2021. The Lightning Bolt is the energy we give and the rainbow gem in the center is the Man and the light that reflects to guide us. The Steel metal used is strength, bonding us together.” Just Brilliant!
