About Stella Maris

Stella Maris is a Household in the SCA headed by Laurel Fiordelise and Lord Tobias. While this portfolio is geared towards the SCA, these skills and projects exist beyond that realm. 

​

Fiordelise DeSarto (mundanely, Andrea Balla) is a skilled seamstress who has played in the SCA for over 20 years. She was invited to the Order of the Laurel in 2020. She has a wealth of historical knowledge and is primarily responsible for the construction and historical accuracy of these designs.

​​

Tobias DiAlexander (mundanely, Taylor Kolberg) is a lifelong fiber artist, photographer, and writer. He joined the SCA in 2021. He is the primary embroiderer, beader, and photographer of these designs as well as the one who maintains this website.

​

Together we both share a hand in driving the vision of each piece depending on our goals and inspiration.

​

We are located outside Denver, Colorado in the Barony of Caerthe in the Kingdom of the Outlands.

​

The Society of Creative Anachronism (SCA) is an international living history group with the aim of studying and recreating different cultures' clothing, lifestyles, artifacts, and histories before the 17th century.

​

We are a black and queer spearheaded household and we are unapologetically equity-focused, striving to make everyone feel welcome no matter their background.
