Paradise California is a small town that I grew up in. I can’t complain, it was a beautiful place. The tragic “Camp Fire” in Nov. 2008 swept through and wiped out the town. I was not there when it happened, but did have family there when it did. I feel for everyone that had to pass through that experience. I could not imagine how it must have been other than frightening. I will not go into too much details about it, but I have made this ring with the Paradise sign in the center of it. It has lots of symbolism to me. The sign itself to represent Paradise and all that it was and can be. The trees that made the place so beautiful. The stylized flames on the inside of the ring. The rising up above the trees that I know we all can do. The text on the sides say “Paradise” on one side and “Strong” on the other.
If you notice in the second half of the images they are with a different text. Camp Fire on one side and the date on the other. This is just showing that I can customize this area of text for you. The text in these locations can be customized to what ever you would like that will fit there. Contact me if you are not sure what will fit and I’ll get back to you.
We all go through rough times in life. I feel that our attitude and the way we look at our challenges can greatly help us to overcome these difficulties a whole lot easier. We can grow from these life changing experiences and become better people. This “Paradise” jewelry collection is one of a kind. I thoughtfully designed them with meaning of great worth. I love to custom design jewelry and the quality of design is important to me and it should be to you. Dana Arts is full of jewelry with unique designs and thoughtful patterns.
I can make this in gold. If that interests you then let me know and I’ll try and put up a gold version.
Thank you for looking and I hope this ring can be worn to help us remember this great town of Paradise and the strength that comes when we all pull together during tough times.
