Sage, the inspiration of the motif and embellishments on the Huldah ensemble.

Huldah
Foil and crystals work together to create sage inspired silhouettes on the blouse. I chose to use sage as Huldah’s flower because it represents her wisdom.

Why did I choose her?
Huldah, the prophet, was so highly respected that the greatest King in Israel’s history (King Josiah, 2 Kings 23:25) sent his top advisors to seek her counsel. This is a great example of a woman serving in a position that is often thought of as being reserved for men and demonstrating as much wisdom as any man in that position.
