with turquoise, coral, onyx and mother of pearl in 925 silver.
Turquoise the Native tribes believe to be the fallen sky stone, held and worn for Protection, Strength, Vitality and Good fortune. The stone of Father Sky, abundant with Positive Heart energy that will encourage Truth, Courage and the expression of our heart desires. Place around the Throat, Third eye or Solar plexus to receive its full energy.
Coral is organic in nature, for Native Americans she is our Earth Mother, an alive being with a Consciousness of her own.The bearer of all Living beings she asks us to reconnect to our feeling bodies, to find Peace, Harmony and clarity, to travel on a path away from our ego and destructive misconceptions.
Onyx is a Powerful Allie in times of Vulnerability or Struggle, it offers us Protection, with the Message to find one’s Own Warrior within. Considered to be a stone of Good luck, with the ability to repel any bad energy given out by others.
Mother of Pearl, also called nacre, is the inner layer of some shells. It is made by when the mollusk (the organism inhabiting the shell) makes crystals. Mother-of-Pearl is said to stimulate intuition, sensitivity, imagination, and adaptability and help with clarity in decision making. Mother of Pearl stirs and awakens the primordial memory of your origin in the infinite ocean of divine love and stirs this memory in every cell of your physical body thereby producing an overall calming effect as it gently stirs the life energy of your cells. Like waves lapping the shore, this stirring is steady, relaxing, and rhythmical.
Channel Inlay is most commonly found within Zuni mixed stone jewellery. Silver Channel Inlay is a variation of Mosaic Inlay, in this method, the artisan creates soldered silver compartments within the base piece of the jewellery, the artist then individually cuts each stone to perfectly fit within these compartments, known as channels. The integrity of the stones and the aesthetics of the piece are strengthened by this technique.
