Green Chalcedony, Opalite and Silver Necklace

17 inches, large solid sterling silver beads, 4mm round sterling silver beads, large green opalite beads, 1.3 inches green chalcedony pendant in silver, sterling silver toggle clasp and findings.

Green Chalcedony

Chalcedony symbolized calmness and composure, and for the Tibetans it is a stone of purity and concentration and internalization of the essential. The name is said to have come from the city of it's discovery, Chalcedon on the Bosphorus. It was quite a popular decorative stone in antiquity, when it was carved with motifs of the air and water deities and water sprites. Some Green Chalcedony is also known as Chrisophase. It is said to bring prosperity and good fortune and success. It enhances and strengthens friendships, helps disperse negative thoughts and emotional balance. It is primarily a calming and balancing stone for the heart chakra (the 4th chakra) stone, which it activates, opens and energizes. A stone for peace, calm and soothing of the emotional body, very useful during these very fiery times of solar activation, which has all of our emotional bodies a bit scratched up.

Opalite

Opalite is a man made silica based stone, made from opal. Despite the fact that it is a man made stone, it does seem to have metaphysical properties (probably from the base opal silica). It is said that it helps stabilize mood swings and promote relaxation. Because of these properties, some have said that it is useful for people with mood disturbances and people with sleep disorders. Opalite can also be used to enhance emotional strength during periods of stress, such as transitional periods or other very busy, high-pressure stages of life. It seems to work with both the heart chakra and the third eye, and like the chalcedony, it is a soothing stone for the emotional body.Also something about the opalescent vibration captures the light of the higher dimensions. When I go into meditation into the higher dimensions of angelic light, the quality of the colored light of the higher planes often has an opalescent hue.

Sterling Silver

Tons of Sterling Silver on this necklaces, all the beads, the clasp, the findings and the pendant are all high quality silver. Silver is the most lunar and feminine of metals. It is a conductor for the emotions but also of all the energies of the other stones, which is why I usually use real silver for all my pieces. This silver is particularly "white" and once again has within it aspects of the higher dimensional light.Overall a piece that, esthetically, feels almost vintage, but energetically, is very subtle, soothing and yet potent.

Much love ♥

Sterling Silver and Rainbow Fluorite Necklace


Beautiful 18 inches necklace with A LOT of sterling silver and an interesting Mayan feeling design. 

Iridescent purple fresh water pearls, rainbow Fluorite 5mm beads, sterling silver Bali beads, 5mm sterling silver round beads with a Bali silver toggle claps. The pendant is Rainbow Fluorite and sterling silver and about 1 inch long, without the bail.



The Vision

A Mayan Priestess, dressed in dark colored silk,  sits in her temple and consults the stars. As she thinks and ponders she slips between the veils and multiple dimensions of reality open to her. Time, past present and future, blend into one.


Purple Rainbow Fluorite

Purple Rainbow fluorite is the main ingredient in this necklace as far as the gemstones are concerned. Various shades of Fluorite from purple to lilac to white are present both as beads and in the pendant. Purple fluorite is a great stone for mental clarity and purification. It is also a very good protection stone, as it helps the aura to stay clear and pure. This is a stone which naturally clears the energy field and keeps it clear from clutter and interference. It also helps the mental body to stay clear and uncluttered facilitating clear thinking. It is also a good stone for both cleansing and gently stimulating the third eye.


Fluorite also helps balance the nervous system and the brain (very soothing). It helps soothe anxiety and worry-thinking. Good for study and retaining information. It also, like most purple stones, enhances psychic ability, most enhancing the "claire" qualities.



Fresh Water Pearls

Fresh Water Pearls are attuned to water and to the Moon and very often associated with the sign of Cancer. Metaphysical properties associated with pearls are calmness, centerdness, faith, loyalty, truth and purity. They can especially enhance personal integrity. They have also been used in a number of cultures to help women connect with their inner goddesses and obtain the ultimate feminine energy.



Silver

Silver is a metal that I always associate with the Moon and the Night. It enhances intuition and it is also a great conductor for other energies. All the silver in this necklaces is sterling silver, with many Bali beads, which are very beautiful :-)








Angelite, Sodalite and Rainbow Moonstone Necklace

18 inch Angelite, and sterling silver beaded necklace, with Sodalite and Rainbow Moonstone sterling silver pendant.


The Vision

The vision for this necklace is that of a pure young female filled awe for the mystery of life, open to receive, in communion with Spirit and the angelic world, attuned to the subtleness of the whispers. It is also a necklace that carries the vibration of joy, a litght vibration that goes with the flow, softly but securely. A steady, uplifting and comforting piece, whilst very feminine and very subtle.

Angelite (Blue Anhydrite)

A stone for angelic communication, gentle self expression, serenity, expanded awareness. A soft throat chakra to crown connecting stone, it soothes while awakening and connecting to the more subtle loving realms of creation. Helps with receiving love and guidance for the higher planes while bringing comfort during the Earth journey.

Angelite or Blue Anhydrite is a fairly new discovery in the gem and mineral world. Discovered in 1987 in Peru, the year of the Harmonic Convergence, it's colors may be white, gray or colorless, as well as blue to violet. The most common color is a blue-gray color that most stones for jewelry are created in.

Angelite helps unlock the secrets of the spoken word, giving voice to your truth. Psychologically, Angelite counteracts harshness; if somebody is acting insensitively in a situation, Angelite will help that person to become more compassionate. It also teaches them acceptance of that which cannot be changed.

Sodalite

Aids with access to the subconscious and intuitive abilities, enhanced insight and mental performance, deepens psychic ability and heals the third eye.

Rainbow Moonstone

A positive psychic projection stone, it helps with healing the emotions and mind, has a gently nurturing vibration, aids with intuition and deepens dreams. A very feminine and very psychic lunar stone, moonstone has a reflective, calming energy. It helps to strengthen intuition and psychic perception and brings balance and harmony. It soothes stress, anxiety, women's hormones it enhances intuitive sensitivity via feelings and less overwhelmed by personal feelings. Aids in finding a gentle energy flow with life and in becoming more comfortable with our gentler feminine side and with expression of the softer and more vulnerable aspects of self. Especially for water signs. Helps one be more conscious of the fact that all things are part of a cycle of constant change. It is a recommended gemstone for women seeing to express the gentler aspect of the Goddess within.Associated also with the vibration of motherhood, mothering and nurturing, both towards others and towards self.

This one of a kind necklace has already found a home. Much love :-)

Blue Kyanite and Blue Labradorite Necklace

Stunning gem quality blue kyanite square beads, antiqued silver Tibetan silver alloy accent beads, sterling silver beads and sterling silver clasp on the necklace, plus a two inch long blue flash labradorite pendant in sterling silver. The necklace is nineteen inches long. Currently offered at 275.

This is a one of a kind necklace. And if you know your stones, this is a very high quality kyanite, very little yellow or gray, very clean and vibrant blue. Same for the blue flash labradorite. Both strong and clear vibrations.



The Vision

A powerful tall female stands in authority as she teaches and shares her wisdom. Her mental body is clear, as is her communication and her boundaries. She says what needs to be said, with firmness and clarity of intent. She knows her truth and her connection to Source. A truth holder in female form. This necklace would suit a public speaker, a trailblazer, a groundbraker or anybody that needs to hold steady boundaries when speaking truth. Just looking at this piece communicates a sense of authority. Authority is sometimes needed, when having to hold ground against the tide. It would also suit a mother of difficult teens ;-) lol

Blue Kyanite



Kyanite is a Soul stone, which connects all the higher chakras ( chakras 5th, 6th and 7th) to the Soul chakras (8th, 9th and 10th). It is strongly attuned to the third eye (6th) and the throat chakra (5th and the Higher mental body (8th). As you can see therefore it makes an excellent stone for receiving soul level knowing (Soul chakra) and for then communicating that knowing to others (throat chakra). Very good stone for channels and teachers that need to be connected with the Higher Mind, which is one of the Soul bodies which many are intent in integrating with now, as we move out of illusion into truth. Also, as it carries the vibration of soul level truth, it also strengthens the power centers in positive ways. In fact many feel that kyanite is a stone that works on all of the chakras until a balance is found. A stone that is healing to he she who wears it and that brings healing to others through clear truthful communication of high concepts.

Blue Labradorite

Labradorite is a powerful Air element stone used known for its magical and divination properties. Probably due to the mirror like flash, it is associated with scrying and seeing beyond the worlds. A sister to moonstone, labradorite links to the "darker" Crone aspects of the Goddess, and grants inner knowing of Mystery. It helps with intuitive ability, past life recall, clairvoyance, telepathy, communication with guides and spirits and is said to even enhance synchronicity. Its a stone for the piercing of the veil and for the enhancement of inner awareness. The multilayer nature of the flash labradorite assists with multidimensional perception. Labradorite is a stone of strength and has its own way of enhacing power, as it aids in directing the will and with the focus of the mind. A stone for shamans, seers and magicians ;-) It is a powerfully protective stone and used appropriately it can assist in the needed protection for moving between the worlds. Here in a lovely blue grey tone, with a striking metallic blue flash and similar throat chakra properties as the blue kyanite and also aids with communication and speaking. 

Tibetan Silver and Sterling Silver
This necklace has sterling silver toggle clasp and beads and stone settings, as well as Tibetan silver beads. The Tibetan silver beads are an alloy which contains Nickel, so not suitable with people with Nickel allergies.



Amethyst, Clear Quartz and Moonstone Necklace

Clear amethyst, faceted clear quartz and laser cut sterling silver beads on the 20 inch necklace, with a teardrop moonstone pendant in sterling silver.Beautiful necklace, full of light. Currently offered at $210.

The Vision



The vision for this necklace is that of a healer in balance, flowing with the healing energies, psychically aligned with source, open to be in service, peacefully. I get a real feeling of light and peace from this necklace combination of stones. The Moonstoone is very soothing and so is the light amethyst. For someone seeking peace and balance in giving and receiving in her trade.

Amethyst

Amethyst is a healing stone, which brings balance to the body and the emotions. It is also a clairvoyant mystic stone, a third eye enhancer, which reactivates ones spiritual connection, in a gentle and easy manner. It also has a protection function, as it strengthens the aura from psychic intrusion or from excess empathy ( porous field), which can leave the healer drained. It also helps with the softening of the nervous system and it is in general very soothing and calming to the physical body.

Clear Quartz

Clear quartz brings clarity of mind allowing for the use of intuition with very little distortion. The energy of the quartz feels masculine compared to the feminine amethyst, providing also polarity balance. Clear quartz is a mixture of solar plexus and crown chakra. If used appropriately and in combination with other higher chakra stones, it helps align the free will with divine will, so that the healer may be effective, while aligned with the positive side of the force, if the healer is service to others orientated and chooses to function outside of ego.

Moonstone (pendant)


A positive psychic projection stone, it helps with healing the emotions and mind, has a gently nurturing vibration, aids with intuition and deepens dreams. A very feminine and very psychic lunar stone, moonstone has a reflective, calming energy. It helps to strengthen intuition and psychic perception and brings balance and harmony. It soothes stress, anxiety, women's hormones it enhances intuitive sensitivity via feelings and less overwhelmed by personal feelings. Greater flexibility and flow with life. It helps all be more comfortable with our gentler feminine side. Especially for water signs. Helps one be more conscious of the fact that all things are part of a cycle of constant change. It is a recommended gemstone for farmers and gardeners, artists, dancers, healers and women seeing to express the gentler Goddess within.Associated also with the vibration of motherhood, mothering and nurturing, both towards others and towards self.

Royal Purple Amethyst and Silver Necklace

Beautiful high quality graduated beads of royal purple amethyst with sterling silver graduated disc spacers and sterling silver lobster clasp. This necklace is 18 inches long and is currently offered at $175.

A very classy and classical piece that makes a statement, this necklaces carries the regal energy of the deep purple stones. This is a particularly high quality amethyst, almost glassy. When photographed it looks more blue than in real life. The true life color is deep purple. This is a piece that can be worn day to day but also as evening ware. Very versatile.

The Vision

I always get visions when making jewelry and with this one the vision is that of a woman in a suit who is however feminine and in touch with her intuitive nature. She knows how to handle her power without giving up her heart. People trust her vision and insight, even if they do not know where it comes from. Key Words: Spirit undercover ;-) lol

Stone Meanings

Amethyst is the universal healer stone. It heals and harmonizes the energy of who wears it as well as being a staple stone in crystal healing. Although a quite common stone, the deep purple African stones are particularly potent and beautiful. They are third eye activators and suggest a feminine vibration that is nocturnal in nature, seeing beyond the veil, into the true nature of things. I also get a feeling of deep inner Earth with these stones, as if the Earth has given us something that comes from deep within her and holds her secrets. A very good third eye awakener, it carries the vibration of wisdom and inner knowing. The silver adds a lunar quality to the overall vibration.

Amethyst, Quartz and Tibetan Silver Necklace

The Necklace

20 inch long necklace with a 1.5 inch ornate hand crafted solid sterling silver square toggle clasp, 6mm amethyst beads, square clear quartz beads and 8 mm Tibetan silver beads. Currently offered for $185.

This is a stunning necklace, in fact my neighbor almost stole it as I was photographing it ;-) lol ...The silver toggle is made to be worn at the front or to the side, as it were a pendant.

A word about Tibetan Silver

Tibetan Silver is a silver and Nickel alloy and is not suitable for people who are allergic to Nickel - however on the plus side this alloy does not tarnish and does not deteriorate like silver plated beads do
, and is as heavy as silver. It just unfortunately has enough nickel in it to not be suited with people with allergies.

The Vision

The vision for this necklace is that of a beautiful woman dressed in blue silk and silver at the balcony of an Arabian palace, looking at the stars and dreaming of ancient tales. Gazing at the stars and at the moon she sees beyond the veil as the warm wind carrying the fragrance of summer nights envelops her.
A very sensual and magical piece.

Smokey Quartz, Black Tourmaline, Smokey Topaz Necklace

Very regal 20 inch necklace with large chunky faceted smokey quartz beads, 10mm round black tourmaline beads and 5mm round sterling silver beads, with a large sterling silver Bali style clasp and 2 inch long smokey quartz pendant in sterling silver.

This is a very regal, imposing necklace with an energy that feels very powerful and grounding., Would suit a Queen of the World with a big Soul Mission ... and a lot of evening functions to attend as this is a very dressy piece...



Smokey Quartz

Smokey Quartz is a very grounding stone which helps transmute discordant energies. It helps us stay in the real world, from proper anchoring of the energy field into the ground to assistance with manifestation. It can assist with creating more ease in the physical body and with all things physical. Excellent for people who need a bit of help with feeling at home on this planet ;-)



 

Black Tourmaline

The ultimate protection and transmutation stone. Excellent for psychic protection and shielding the energy field. But also excellent for transmuting patterns or energies that are difficult. Black tourmaline shoots whatever is discordant down into the Earth, its the Earth that actually does the transmuting. At the physical level black tourmaline helps with transmutation of toxins and waste. Some forms of black tourmaline are also very high vibration, creating a phenomenal clearing for the whole chakra tree from base to crown.The stones here have that vibration :-)



Smokey Topaz

Smokey Topaz is very similar in properties to Smokey Quartz, with a slightly higher vibration. Very beautiful and happy feeling stone :-)
It helps overcome depression, enhances psychic abilities, opens the mind and reveal solutions.
