white pearls with quartz gemstones by ocean phoenix designs

I just created a beautiful long white pearl necklace with faceted quartz gemstones, mother of pearl and Swarovski crystal beads in support of the BC Cancer Foundation's annual Jingle Mingle Cocktail Party and Silent Auction at the Empress Hotel in Victoria on December 01, 2010.

It should be a fabulous time with some amazing donations from other local designers and businesses. It's fun to get into the warm holiday spirit of giving and gifting already.

healing properties of coral

Ancient Egyptians added coral to tombs to ward off evil spirits. They believed that each piece contained a drop of divine blood and that it would protect them.

To this day, people use coral to protect themselves against negative energy and to preserve their energy levels.

Coral is often recommend for menopausal women and young children as it is said to prevent osteoporosis and promote healthy bone formation.

In accordance with its red colour, coral is also recommended to treat blood and circulation disorders.

Psychologically, it said that coral strengthens love and the need for partnership and that it makes the wearer immune to envy and resentment.

healing properties of citrines

This golden, sunny gem is said to correspond with the solar plexus and other parts directly linked to it, which helps to stimulate the metabolic processes of the liver, stomach, duodenum.

It is also is known to have a detoxifying effect and a positive influence on the metabolism.

Citrine has a a beneficial influence on the nervous system, improves concentration, and combats stress and depression.

It sounds like the perfect gemstone to help ward off those dreaded winter blahs.

The 56.50 CT caged citrine used here, is massive in size and luster and will soon be for sale in the shop with matching earrings. It is a pear checker board cut beauty that I am having a hard time parting with.
