'Shield of Light' ~ Nine stone talisman in earthy tones
DESCRIPTION
Crystal healing talisman combining the energies of nine different crystal types: Agate, Black Tourmaline, Peace Jade, Smokey Quartz, Almandine Garnet, Labradorite, Lava Stone, Shaman Dream Stone and Quartz. The necklace is beaded with beech wood beads which I've 'aged' to earthy grey tones in a botanical eco-dye bath of local wind fallen leaves. The wooden beads are spaced with Smokey Quartz, Peace Jade and Lava Stone crystals. One further Agate adorns the necklace, settling behind the neck when worn.
The hanging pendant tassel consists of seven strands, one is beaded similarly as the necklace itself, six are knotted with dark brown micro-macrame cord and include crystals of Black Tourmaline, Labradorite, Lodolite, Quartz and Almandine Garnet. The six knotted strands also include one wooden bead each, which moves along the strand. This makes the tassel particularly intriguing to handle. There's a tactile feel to it, it can be a concentration / meditation aid, and you can simply play with the tassel elements in your hand to feel the crystal energy connection.
This necklace is set length, with an all-around measurement 78 cm (30.5"). The longest crystal tassel strand hangs down approx. 12 cm (4.7") from where it joins the middle Agate, down to the base of the stone. When the necklace is worn, the tassel stones reach down and hang just below the solar plexus area. The largest stone in the tassel, Black Tourmaline, is just over 2 cm (0.8") tall.
There are no metals in this necklace so would be particularly suitable for those with metal sensitivities / metal allergy, energy workers and those who simply prefer not to wear metal jewellery.
You'll receive this crystal healing necklace in one of my fabric draw-string pouches, great for the safe-keeping of the necklace. Gift-wrapped at no extra charge.
