"Queens with ammonite crowns" The name ammonite is reminiscent of the ancient Egyptian god Amun, whose ram's horns reminded the people of antiquity of the spiral shape of the fossils. Pliny the Elder already called them Ammonis cornua, thus associating them with the divine.
I imagine a queen whose crown is not made of metal, but of the spiral shape of times long since silent. The ammonites sit on her head like memories, each coil a generation, each rib a report from the depths. In my pictures, I bring this crown to life on paper as visible thought: not just as jewelry, but as a chronicle, as power that grows out of age and consistency.
Pink shows the gentle form of strength: empathy, intercession, and tender power. The pink crown whispers of tenderness and of an authority that binds rather than divides.
Blue breathes expansiveness and prudence. The blue queen is a mediator, guardian of expansiveness—she maintains distance and closeness at the same time, like the sea that once carried ammonites.
Green speaks of renewal and healing. A green-crowned queen combines the primal power of the earth with care; her reign is sustainable, nourishing, and growth-oriented.
Gold connects the earthly fossil with royal transcendence. Golden accents elevate the queen's ammonite crown to an icon: honor, heritage, and the light that comes from constancy.
