A Night Without Armor - Poems
I've learned that not all poetry lends itself to music -- some thoughts need to be sung only against the silence. There are softer and less tangible part[s] of our selves that are so essential to peace, to openheartedness, to unfolding the vision and the spiritual realm of our lives, to exposing our souls. In A Night Without Armor, her first collection of poetry, Jewel explores the fire of first love, the fading of passion, the giving of trust, the lessons of betrayal, and the healing of intimacy.
Carefully researched, meticulously detailed account of the style and construction of period costumes. Includes descriptions and illustrations of royal apparel, elaborate ecclesiastical dress and vestments, academic and legal garments, and civilian dress of all classes. Also discusses jewelry, armor, textiles, embroidery and hairdressing.
First volume in a new series for paper doll fans and costume enthusiasts traces the history of fashion. 2 dolls are accompanied by 16 accurately rendered costumes worn between 1200–1350 AD. Among them: tunics, chain-mail armor, and fur-trimmed capes for men, as well as gowns, embroidered tunics, and soft under robes for women.
