Hessonite, Red Tigers Eye and Hex Hematite (set of 3)
Hessonite is a member of the Garnet family. This burnt orange garnet is also sometimes called Cinnamon Stone and is found in various locations including the Americas, India, Sri Lanka, Madagascar and Tanzania. Hessonite is said to have strong spiritual value for people regarded as wise. It is said to stay the lips from people who are gossiping and is said to promote success, wealth and longevity.
Tigers Eye is linked with the zodiac signs of Leo and Capricorn. It is strong grounding stone that is believed to be protective against negativity. (Romans used Tigers Eye to protect themselves in battle). It is a stone of manifestation that can help you focus on your goals and heighten your creativity, increase perception and bring balance. It is said to bring calm (I have one good friend that swears by this). It is also said to offer protection when travelling.
Hematite is associated with the zodiac signs of Aries and Aquarius and the base chakra. It is protective stone that is grounding and balancing. It is said to stimulate the mind, increase self confidence and esteem. It may be beneficial for those who lack will power and also those who find it hard to find their voice. Hematite is sometimes used to assist those with addiction and compulsions and those that are prone to emotional outbursts.
Please note the Hematite used in this set is coated to achieve the brown colour as Hematite is naturally charcoal grey.
One of my favourite sets features Hessonite, Red Tigers Eye and coated brown Hex Hematite set. It’s warm and cosy and reminds me of dripping caramel and golden syrup. It’s totally my cup of tea (or rather coffee so it seems) and I hope its yours too.
I love the versatility of this set. You can wear it by itself plus it goes with with so much. Hessonite is a member of the Garnet family and is sometimes called cinnamon stone.
All Wristocracy bracelets are hand threaded and can be worn together as a collection or individually and can be a great starting point for adding other bracelets in the Wristocracy range.
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.

Sizes outside the standard ones listed are available on request - please feel free to message me. Please note that bracelets above 21cm may cost a little extra (approx + 15%) due to the extra cost of beads used.
