Here Comes the Sun Pin/Brooch, Silver & Bronze Jewelry
1 7/8" x 1 1/8"
The return of the sun after the winter solstice is a life giving event. In this mixed metal design the ascendant sun (face) is beginning to eclipse the waning winter moon. The river symbolizes the return of spring and the goose overhead, the promise of new life.
Having lived in Alaska for over 40 years, I am very conscious of its seasonal cycles. We move from summer solstice on June 21st and almost 24 hours of sunshine, to the darker days of winter where on December 21st we have just a little over 4 hours of possible daylight. We love to celebrate the return of the sun in mid-December, during winter solstice by either leaving the state for warmer climes or building huge bonfires and sharing them with dear friends. I have done both.

My husband and children have been collecting Judie Gumm jewelry for me for over 14 years. We first learned of this beautiful creative lady when my husband was stationed at Fairbanks, Alaska. I think of all of the creations I’ve gotten or given as gifts this has got to be my favorite set. It’s symbolism is everything. Very simple and yet elegant. Thank you for continuing to create such lovely pieces.

Hi Christine, thanks you for your lovely comments. It has taken me some time to answer because I didn’t know that I could…I have a huge learning curve on the computer! I love what I do.. next year is my 50th anniversary and I am looking forward to creating some pieces just for the celebration. Best, Judie
