Island Dream Necklace

Where Does Time Go to Rest?
Island Dream Necklace

Time goes to a place where the four winds are free
To meet and play in the tree tops and dance with the full moon.
Listen closely for the faint familiar music you hear…
The trees are whispering their island dreams into the night wind.

Maine Island Magic

The image of a pristine perfect island off the coast of Maine seems like the ideal spot. It would be your own kingdom of spruce trees surrounded by blue water. Perhaps you’re lucky enough to have spent summers on your island or perhaps it’s a dream you have yet to realize. Our Island Dream necklace is a talisman of serenity and peace and a place we all imagine we may be privileged to visit one day.

This is One of the Most Precious
Little Spruce Clad Islands
on the Maine Coast

Photo of a delightful little island at Lookout Point, on the west side of Harpswell. Part of its magic is its tight cluster of spruce trees. The other part of its magic is that for half of the day, the tide is out and you can walk to and around the island. The other half of the day the tide sweeps up Middle Bay and returns this tiny kingdom to island status.

There is a parking lot where you can park your car, enjoy a picnic lunch, and look out to the island. Time it for low tide and you can have your lunch on the island!

On our coast, there must be a thousand small islands with classic spruce trees like the one depicted on our Island Dream. This one is special because you can walk out to it for part of the day.

Low Tide is a good time to go because you can explore for shells.

Island Dream Necklace

I would like to go to this island today, or for that matter, almost any Maine island with full sun on an August afternoon, to be with a Maine sea breeze, blue waves, sparkly light on the water, and spruce trees. I’d like to stay on this island until the sun goes down and the moon comes up. I’d like to trade today for any sunny day in August on a Maine island.

Painting of Lookout Point, Harpswell, Maine

A Painting Treasure

We saw this painting in an antique shop in Brunswick, Maine. We thought it looked familiar. We headed down Harpswell peninsula to look at “Lookout Point”. We confirmed and went back and bought the painting. We usually make a Sunday drive picnic pilgrimage to this spot every year. I recommend it. R.H.P.

Victoria’s Island Dream Necklace

A Family Tradition

My youngest daughter, Victoria, has decided to become a jeweler. One of her choice pieces is the Islands Dream necklace: a spruce tree on a small Maine island hand-pierced in silver with a 14K yellow gold harvest moon rising. I’m very proud of Victoria and quite delighted with this, her first piece. -RHP

Island Dream Necklace

This sterling silver necklace is 1″ x 5/8″ and is hand-pierced with a very fine jeweler’s hand coping saw. Moon is a 14K yellow gold harvest moon rising.

Think summer evening mist in the air, big open sky, waves on the shore. If you close your eyes, you can smell the spruce trees. 18″ sterling silver chain.
