Moss Agate Magic
Handwoven cord: sable + celadon, large moss agate side focal point, triple strand of faceted moss agate beads w/ two asymmetrically placed rough faceted agate beads that pull the aesthetic focus points, accents of agate beads, soft matte serpentine, trade brass, patina bronze, and a dapped coin clasp. ~17.25”
This piece is magic! The way the two large agate nuggets are asymmetrically placed in the triple strand of tiny faceted moss agate beads, pulls the lines of focus when worn, as depicted in the last photo. I love designing pieces like this, that display differently when worn on the body. One of the trade brass beads was hand selected especially for its “flaw” - there is a hole, inviting you to peek at the handwoven cording inside. There’s something special when you can embrace the perfection of imperfection.
Truly wearable art - I would wear this one every day, personally - it is a powerful piece for either special occasion or everyday adornment.
Agate is known to be the stone of goodwill, its lore is that of providing balance between the heart and the mind, ushering pleasant dreams, prompting honesty from its presence, and protection to its bearer. Moss agate in particular is known as the “gardener’s talisman”, promoting within its bearer a guide to treasure and enhanced energy reserves.
