BLUEBERRIES

Handfuls of tangy berries eaten on the spot make for memories of climbing favorite mountains, of seeing autumn slopes washed with deep blue where blueberry bushes cover the ridges. In addition to their medicinal properties, the fresh springtime leaves make an excellent tea.

Hand patinaed bronze with lapis. Handmade in the USA.
