Handcrafted by The Secret Charm®
These beautiful prayer beads are 24.5" long and have been specially created to honour Elen Of The Ways.
High quality gemstones include: lapis lazuli, sapphires, herkimer diamonds, faceted amethysts, aura quartz points, titanium plated hematite leaves, moonstone and a lace agate geode.
********************
An artisan made polymer clay face (28x28mm) hangs from one end of the beads, with 3 little herkimer diamonds above it. The other end of the strand holds a cluster of symbolic charms.
A hand hammered sterling silver wave represents the natural swirl of water as its winds its way through the forest in little streams. The wire wrapped loop at the top represents the eddies which occur behind rocks on the stream bed, with a sterling bubble bead and 2 little sapphires beneath it representing the bubbles and rain drops that sometimes appear fleetingly on the surface before melting into the steam as it carries on its journey.
A fine silver leaf and acorn charm hangs from a moonstone and large Swarovski crystal both wrapped in sterling silver.
A brass compass with verdigris patina, green etched glass leaf with amethyst, and a pewter antler charm complete the piece.
********************
The strong feminine energies of this piece are amplified by the inclusion of handcrafted lampwork glass and ceramics by female artisans from the UK and US. There are some truly beautiful pieces of work included in this strand.
