For periods of change and cycles of renewal.
The stones: Amethyst is a variety of crystalline quartz, closely related to smoky quartz and citrine. Coloured purple by iron, in the Moon Talisman it appears as smooth, graduated beads.
Meeting them in the centre of the necklace are faceted moonstones. These beautiful stones display a characteristic optical effect called adularesence. This trick of the light and stone’s structure is responsible for the billowing glow that moves across the stone as it’s moved.
Why these stones for the Moon: Moonstone was named for this quality, which is created by minute layers within the stone. These layers give light within the stone the same qualities as the moon: shifting, present, never quite where you expect it.
In European folk tradition, moonstone was associated with cycles and change. Amethyst, on the other hand, was associated with steadiness and clarity. In some traditions, amethyst is also associated with deep healing and dreams.
Formed of graduated stones, this necklace waxes and wanes like the moon as it moves around your neck.
The talisman: Wear this during periods of genuine transition — not the small daily variety, but the larger kind, when something is ending and something else hasn't fully begun. A reminder that being between things is not the same as being lost.
Materials: Smooth graduated amethyst beads, faceted moonstone beads, grey vegan silk, sterling silver fastenings
Length: 16 inches
Construction: Hand-knotted for durability and longevity
