ELEMENTAL COLLECTION: Pendants

My passion is to make sure that the right piece of jewellery reaches the right person and I’d be delighted to help you with your choice and to answer any questions you may have. All my jewellery is wrapped in sterling silver and 14k goldfill wire. All the pieces are gift-boxed, with an information card about the stones, and how to care for your jewellery.

I have made every effort to reproduce colours faithfully but some minor variations may occur occasionally. Please note that all sizes are approximate and prices do not include postage and packing.

Rose Quartz

Rose Quartz is the famous ‘love’ stone, but it helps us recognise that the most meaningful of loving relationships starts with the self. The stone is said to provide comfort in times of
need, and the amethyst accents represent peace and calm. The pendant is 5.2cm long and 3cm and costs £70.

Turquoise

This is an uplifting and protective stone, which is said to help tune out distractions an connect with the

Rhodochrosite is said to help us feel supported during difficult times, encouraging us to discuss problems with trusted friends, knowing we are loved and supported.

Amazonite & Pearl

Amazonite is said to help remind us that there is more to life than the 9-5 and that we should spend more time doing what we love.

This incredibly vibrant pendant is 7cm long, 4cm wide and costs £60.

Septarian

Septarian, also known by some as ‘Dragon Stone’, is a fascinating combination of yellow Calcite, brown Aragonite and grey Limestone.

It is said to be especially helpful for public speakers, or people who need to speak in groups, as it helps to get the attention of the audience. The pendant is 5.5cm long, 2.7cm wide and costs £40.

Moss Agate

Moss Agate is a stone associated with the element of earth and new beginnings. Also known as the Gardener’s Stone, it is believed to refresh the soul and allow us to see the beauty all around us. It is also said to help intuitive people to channel their energy in practical ways. It comes in many forms and some gorgeous patterns. One of my personal favourites, this statement pendant is 6.5cm long, 3.5cm wide and costs £75.

Rainbow Moonstone

Associated with the element of water, and the moon, this stone has traditionally been linked with the enhancement of psychic energy and intuition.

Horse Canyon Agate

This extremely rare stone is probably the most stunning form of moss agate I think I’ve ever seen. It was mined in Horse Canyon in California which is now closed.

The pendant is 5.2cm long, 3cm wide and costs £75.

Picture Jasper

Oh-so-subtle Picture Jasper is eminently wearable and is believed to help with the release of difficult emotions, such as guilt, hatred, fear or envy, so they may be seen as little more than lessons learned along life’s path. This simple design in silver and 14k gold-filled wire really complements the subtlety of the stone. The pedant is 4cm long and 2cm wide. It costs £38.

Quartz with Hematite

This stunner is a lovely, almost pale raspberry/peachy colour, thanks to its Hematite inclusions. Quartz acts like a battery, boosting energy or restricting it as required. It also enhances the power of other crystals nearby. Hematite is said to protect warriors and highlight unfulfilled desires. Together, we have a really energising stone which is said to cheer, rejuvenate and invigorate. It is said to be especially helpful for those who are at a low ebb. This pendant is 6cm long and 3.5cm wide. It costs £60.

Andean Pink Opal

Not all opal is classed as ‘precious’ opal, but this common opal is, I think, just as lovely. This stone is said to teach us to rely less on our loved ones and more upon ourselves. It therefore gives us a strong sense of individuality and shows just how strong we can be when we put the past behind us, accept what has happened and move on. The stone is wrapped in a combination of sterling silver and 14k goldfilled wire. It is 5.5cm long and 4cm wide and costs £40.

This rich red-brown stone is accented with a sterling silver bead to make a pendant which is 5cm long and 3cm wide. It costs £35.

Rose Quartz and Rhodolite Garnet

The pendant is 14cm long and 22mm wide. It costs £50.

Carnelian and Smoky Quartz Tassel

Fiery, sparkling, carnelian and earthy, mysterious smoky quartz is a combination which can help foster passion for life and creativity, while keeping your feet on the ground enough to stay focussed on your goal. Perfect for creative people who never manage to finish a project! The pendant is 15cm long and approximately 1cm wide. It costs £50.

Kyanite and Peridot Tassel

The stunning jewel colours in this pendant remind me of the sea and is a bright and beautiful combination of airy blue kyanite and earthy peridot.

Quartz and Amethyst

Clear Quartz works on energy at all levels – it can pick you up if you’re feeling a little lethargic, but calm your energy down if you need it to.

In this case, it is paired with a gorgeous, faceted Amethyst, and this powerful but gentle combination of the elements of earth and air will help bring clarity and peace to your thoughts and feelings.

It is mostly associated with promoting confidence, especially with business and financial matters. The pendant is 6.5cm long and just over 3cm wide. Price £45. Corresponding earrings available.

Boulder Opal

This boulder opal is a highly unusual, quite rare, stone, with flashes of neon blue opal set against a base of ironstone.

  4. As soon as I saw the Ruby In Zoisite pendant I was draw to it and Lorraine explained the qualities of the stone and I had to have it. I wore it for the first time today while on our craft stall. I felt energised but calm and relaxed which is unusual for me at a craft fair. It sat lovely against my neckline and I received a number of compliments so of course I passed on Lorraine’s website. Your knowledge and skill Lorraine surpasses all that I’ve seen before and frankly the so called gem experts at the fair today could learn an awful lot from you. Thank you so much I can’t believe how much it lifted my mood
