✦ A step at a time

Description

Circular medallion featuring a hand-embroidered black-and-white photograph of an ancient South Tyrolean staircase, stitched onto a metal sieve frame. On the back, vintage linen bears the embroidered phrase: “You don’t need to see the entire staircase, start by climbing the first step.” The talisman hangs from a red cord, ready to wear around the neck.

Every detail of the talisman speaks of presence and patience. The staircase depicted encourages the wearer to focus on the immediate step, to avoid being overwhelmed by anxieties about the future, reminding them that every challenge can be faced one step at a time. The vintage linen adds texture and memory, while the cool metal of the sieve and its circular shape convey solidity, protection, and continuity. The red cord wraps the wearer in a thread of energy and reassurance, making the talisman not just symbolic but physically present in everyday life.

This medallion is more than an accessory: it is a small ritual of care and attention. Each time it is touched, it recalls the slowness of time, the delicacy of the journey, and the value of taking life step by step. The choice of photograph, the hand assembly, and the richness of the materials create a unique object capable of accompanying its wearer with calm, courage, and resilience. Delivered in custom packaging, free of plastic and protected with natural materials, the talisman is ready to become a discreet companion in daily life, bringing harmony, presence, and confidence with every gesture.
