“Strixaria”

The “Strixaria” is the Reliquary's white sentinel. A snowy owl breaks into full wingspan beneath an arc of moon phases, every feather a raised piece of leather applique laid down patch by patch by hand, amethyst crystals and ember wildflowers gathering at the twilight hem. Beneath the sculpture: a structured handbag that swallows a 13-inch laptop and your day. Made in a limited pre-order batch; when the owl's flight is claimed, it's gone. For the watcher who sees everything and says little.
