If your soul is most at peace by the sea.
The stones: This talisman brings together two materials which are, in a real sense, of the ocean.
Keshi pearls form when a mollusc produces a pearl with no core, composed entirely of nacre, the iridescent material that makes pearls valuable in the first place. These pearls are Irregular in shape, entirely organic, and formed through a process that can’t be replicated or rushed. No two keshi pearls are the same.
Aquamarine is a variety of beryl, coloured blue-green by trace amounts of iron within its crystal structure. Its name comes directly from the Latin aqua marina, which means water of the sea. The name isn’t a metaphor; it’s a description of the ocean-like colour. AA quality means exceptional clarity and cut saturation.
Why these stones for the Ocean: The connection of these stones to the sea isn’t symbolic. Pearls emerge from the sea. Aquamarine's colour is the sea. Together they reference water as a force that is both beautiful and genuinely powerful, capable of persistence, of wearing away stone, and of sustaining enormous depth.
In many traditions, aquamarine was carried by sailors as protection and was associated with safe passage through uncertainty. Pearls appear across folk magic traditions as symbols of emotional truth and purity.
The talisman: This is a talisman for periods of emotional renewal. A reminder that we ebb and flow with the tide. And that some vast forces remain beyond our imaginings or control.

Length: 16 inches
