Item details

We're used to seeing highly polished iridescent moonstones in jewellery but the stone is beautiful when it has been tumbled as this piece demonstrates.

The copper decoration has been added to highlight the stone's natural indents and striations and has been designed to make the pendant reversible. For those who believe in the healing power of crystals and copper, I ensure that both stone and copper come into contact with the skin. Copper is a traditional gift for a 9th wedding anniversary in the UK and 7th in the US.

The copper has been antiqued to complement the milkiness of the moonstone.

The pendant is supplied an 18" copper chain which has been handcrafted using the 1300-year old Viking knit technique.

Moonstones

Moonstones are said to promote empathy and intuition. Physically it is reputed to help the digestive system, eliminate toxins and fluid retention and is generally considered to be a good stone for new and expectant mothers.

Moonstones are an alternative to pearls as the birthstone for June.

This is a one-off piece as the size and shape of the stone dictates the finished design and is therefore totally unique.

I am happy to accept commissions for other pendants and will keep you updated of progress to ensure that you are happy with the direction being taken.

Unless otherwise requested, this pendant is supplied in a box. Signed for first class postage within the UK is included.

Moonstones have always felt magical and mystical to me with the irridescent blues and and silvers hidden in their polished depths. I was surprised when I saw the tumbled version: milky with shades of silver and grey but with a mother-of-pearl sheen to it. I knew I wanted to work with it and create a pendant which did the stone justice.

Unable to find a chain which suited the finished piece, I set about making my own using the centuries-old Viking technique where a copper tube is created around a dowel and then passed through a drawplate to obtain the desired thickness and appearance. This process is as magical as the moonstone itself.
