The Watch
Some things are meant to be kept. A promise. A prayer. A light that doesn’t go out when the room goes dark.
The Watch is hand-carved from Indiana limestone, quarried in Owen County, with a small wooden cross lashed to its face by a single leather cord, tied by hand. The stone is left honest — the saw marks, the weight, the cool grain catching the light. At the top, a hollow waits for a tea light. Set the flame, and the whole piece does the one thing it was made to do: keep watch.
“My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning.” — Psalm 130:6
A piece for the nightstand, the windowsill, the quiet corner where someone prays — and for the table set in memory of one who’s gone. Display it on a flat, level surface, and keep it level while the candle is lit.
Faith, carved to endure — and a flame to mark the watch.
