Formerly known as Nikki by Rose Thorn
We all carry thorns.
Moments that pierced us.
Memories that never quite left the body.
The griefs we’ve been told to bury but still live inside our bones.
Inspired by the healing journey of Nikki Mark and her son, Tommy, Noir Thorn is more than a necklace—it’s a wearable ritual. It was born in the wake of sudden loss, in the quiet ache of a mother’s love, and in the sacred search for something that could hold what words could not.
As The Body Keeps the Score teaches us, trauma doesn’t just live in the mind—it embeds itself in the body. It speaks through tension, through illness, through exhaustion we can’t explain. But it can also be released. Grief, like energy, is meant to move.
This piece was designed with that truth in mind.
At its core is a tiny, discreet tool—a hand-carved screwdriver—that allows the wearer to gently activate acupressure points. By stimulating these energetic pathways, the body is reminded of its ability to flow, to release, to re-pattern. It becomes an embodied prayer. A physical meditation. A way back to center.
Noir Thorn honors the pain we’ve endured and the beauty we still carry. It’s a nod to the sacred balance of shadow and light. A tool for moving stuck emotion. And a reminder that we are never truly disconnected from the universe—only temporarily blocked.
Tommy believed in joy, in play, and in the magic that still exists here.
This piece carries his essence. It invites us to feel, to heal, and to remember that even thorns can be beautiful.
