Necklace – Stone and Wood

Stone and Wood – a contrast in texture, temperature and weight which balance each other perfectly.  Stone is hard, varies greatly in temp and can feel heavy.  These Sandalwood beads, while solid, have a softness, don’t vary in temperature as much and are quite light. Together, they are a lovely combination embodying nature’s earthy colours. The stone is Maifanite, which helps you maintain a healthy spirit.  It is believed to help you return to a peaceful life and can show you the way to your ideal future.  It is a stone that was originally used for purifying water, so it has a high capacity for purification within us. Sandalwood has a divine smell and is a sacred wood. The tassel is quite different to normal, having just two strands with a few beads. The main part of the necklace has 77 beads and the total length is 84cms.
