2635 - Amazonite Amazonite is believed to have many healing characteristics, including improving your skin, marriage, clarity of thought and social interaction. It is also credited with alleviating muscle spasms, stress and exhaustion.
It takes a relatively good polish, but still maintains a somewhat raw, natural texture that makes it even more appealing to many people. Its name is derived from the Amazon River, although no deposits have been found there. Amazonite should be cleaned in lukewarm soapy water, never with a steamer or ultrasonic cleaner. Abrasives, acids and other chemicals can damage Amazonite, as can scratches and sharp blows.
These are flattened oval beads, on a strand measuring 38cm

* * * * *
Chrysocolla is most commonly found in an attractive blue-green color with brown, rust or black inclusions, but, if you are lucky, you may find a stone that also contains gold flecks, so be sure to check your beads carefully!
Chrysocolla is a minor ore of copper, as it forms in the oxidation zones of copper-rich areas. The name is of Greek origin, chrysos meaning "gold" and kolla meaning "glue," in reference to similar-looking material that was used to solder gold. It is a very fragile mineral and cannot be used for jewelry unless it is agatized in chalcedony.
Much of the chrysocolla on the market is mined in Africa, and is sometimes billed as African chrysocolla.

Chrysocolla is said to be good for creativity, female energy and communication, as well as relieving ulcers and arthritis. It is also associated with tranquility, peace, intuition, patience and unconditional love.

2625 - Amethyst - SOLD With its luscious color, Amethyst is the official birthstone for February.
The stone's name is derived from the Greek word amethystos, meaning "not drunken," because people of ancient times believed it to protect the wearer from drunkenness. For this reason, wine goblets often were carved from it!
Some amethysts will lose their color in sunlight, so keep them away from direct exposure to help maintain their rich purple. Fortunately, the original color of amethyst can be restored by X-ray radiation; so next time you get an X-ray, ask if the technician will let you bring some amethyst along!

Technically, Cinnabar is mercury sulfide – found near recent volcanic activity. Its name comes from Medieval Latin cinnabaris; Red lead. Because of its vivid red color, powdered cinnabar was used during ancient times for "war" and ceremonial face and body paint.
The toxicity of mercury and cinnabar was well known before 2000 B.C, when slaves and prisoners mining the ore died after three-years. However, the Chinese during the Song Dynasty, reduced the risk by using lacquer over the cinnabar carvings onto chests, candle sticks, snuff bottles and other ornaments.
Today, the toxic pigment is replaced by a resin-based polymer that looks the same as the pigmented lacquer. Most beads and jewelry sold as cinnabar now, consist of a carved wood base covered by layers of resin, and are totally harmless.

Tiger Coral - 2438 Tiger Coral Chips.
This type of bamboo coral is often known as tiger coral because of its exotic stripes. It has natural beige and black sections, reminiscent of the sections in bamboo plants.
The beads are strategically cut from the coral so that both colors are visible on each piece.
Coral, with its reputed ability to calm and improve life, is considered the best accessory for todays life in the fast lane.
Said to protect children, it is given as a gift to them in many countries. It also is used in difficulties of the lungs and digestion, and many relate it to blood circulation. Coral is said to help restore harmony in the event of emotional conflict and work against nutritional deficiencies, depression and lethargy.
***
(Many people think coral, like ivory, must be protected and/or is an endangered species. However, the few threatened coral reefs are monitored by international law. Furthermore, research shows that at current harvesting levels, even the Great Barrier Reef's coral is sustainable; in other words, it replenishes itself at a rate equal to or greater than it is collected. While some types of coral grow extremely slowly (at a rate of only about three centimeters every 20 years!), other branching varieties are estimated to grow up to 10 centimeters each year. Live coral for aquariums currently is more profitable to harvest than dead coral for jewellery. )
