A pendant born from the sea and the earth, flowing downward in three acts. An oval amazonite cabochon crowns the piece - its seafoam and jade patterning wrapped in an oxidized sterling silver bezel. Two rounds of abalone shell follow beneath it, each set in oxidized silver bezels with granulation detailing, their iridescent surfaces shifting between blue, teal, and silver depending on the light. Each element connects through handmade silver links, and the final setting is finished with a small silver bead accent, giving the whole piece a graceful, living movement.
This piece was created entirely by intuition. Each stone chose its place. It exists once, exactly as it is, and will never be made again.
The Materials & Their Gifts
Amazonite
Stone of truth and courage. Calms the nervous system, encourages authentic self-expression, and filters stress and negativity. Associated with the heart and throat chakras - the bridge between feeling and speaking one's truth.
Abalone Shell (×2)
A gift from the ocean, abalone is known as a stone of emotional balance, protection, and flow. Its iridescent surface is said to carry the healing energy of the sea - calming emotions, enhancing intuition, and fostering love and compassion. Strongly connected to the water element and the divine feminine.
Metaphysical properties are offered as spiritual folklore and personal intention work. They are not intended as medical advice.
Care Instructions
- Store in an airtight pouch or cloth-lined box away from direct sunlight to preserve the oxidized patina and protect the shell.
- Remove before swimming, bathing, exercising, or applying perfume, hairspray, or lotion.
- Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. Do not use silver polishing cloths or chemical dips - they will strip the intentional black oxidization and can damage the abalone.
- Abalone shell is delicate - avoid prolonged exposure to water, acidic substances, or direct heat, which can cause the shell to crack, dull, or delaminate.
- Do not submerge the pendant in water. Clean only by gentle spot-wiping with a barely damp cloth if needed.
- Handle with care - abalone can chip if knocked against hard surfaces.
- To energetically cleanse, pass through sage or palo santo smoke, or place near selenite overnight. The ocean connection of abalone also makes sound cleansing (singing bowl) especially resonant for this piece.
