NEW Turquoise Chrysocolla, Black & Gold Amazonite and Coconut Heishi
This gorgeous Turquoise Chrysocolla from South Africa has such unusual patterning I couldn’t keep it to myself any longer.
I’ve paired it with some black and gold faceted Amazonite and coconut Heishi beads to bring out the brown, black, grey and green tones in it. I’ve elected to finish it with beachy Bronze Patina focal beads and a teal Czech glass tile bead.
Whilst this set works perfectly by itself if you want to extend it further try it with a pearl bracelet (available on request), any of your keepsake jewellery or take a look at the Picture Jasper that also features Patina beads and provides the perfect complement without detracting from the star of the show - the Chrysocolla.
For those interested in the metaphysical properties of the stones used in this set:
Chrysocolla is said to be useful in cleansing the aura. It calms, purifies and re-energises the chakras by drawing out guilt, healing heartache and increasing the capacity to love. It may encourage personal power through increased self-awareness and inner balance. It is a stone of confidence and motivation that is linked to the zodiac signs Gemini, Virgo and Taurus and all chakras. It may be useful for those with phobias and may facilitate letting them go, drawing out the negative patterns and destructive behaviours.
Amazonite is associated with the zodiac sign of the Virgo. It is the birthstone for people born between the end of August and September. Amazonite is also considered beneficial for those born under Leo, Aries, or Scorpio. It is said to be particularly helpful in letting go of stress and negativity, soothing the spirit and calming the soul, filtering stress, bringing hope, courage and bravery to the wearer. Connected with both the heart and the throat chakras, Amazonite is said to help balance energies and bring about a clarity of mind. Varieties include Black & Gold, Chinese, Mozambique, Peru, Russian Amazonite is said to be a balancing stone. Often used in spiritual healing.
Please note both stones are natural in colour and NOT DYED.
Sizing
I recommend you select a size that is 1-1.5cm larger than your actual wrist size to allow a little movement. As these bracelets are elasticised it is not recommended that you wear them taut as it strains the elastic and may be uncomfortable on your wrist, nor too loose that it will catch on things.
Caring for your Wristocracy:
Like with all my jewellery I do recommend you take bracelets off before entering water. Frequent exposure to water and cologne can damage the beads.
Some gemstones are water or photosensitive. This means long periods of water or sun exposure may erode or fade the stone - so it is best to keep this in mind when wearing or storing the jewellery.
Safety
Bracelets are intended for adult wear only. Please keep beads away from animals and small children and ingestion may cause harm.
Gemstones are beautiful to look at, but make no mistake - they should never be ingested. If your bracelet or necklace breaks, collect all the stones and put them in a safe place and contact the maker to remake (if possible). I will remake my pieces only. Please note there is a small charge for re-making and if extra beads are required I may charge a little bit for those also.
Most minerals are safe to wear or handle normally, however if the polish on your gemstone starts to breakdown you need to consider replacing the stones.
