Kambaba Jasper

Jasper comes in many combinations of colours and patterns but Kambaba Jasper is known for its deep, mottled bottle-green colour. This is an intensely protective stone that offers a slow, steady energy to its wearer, and is therefore said to be an especially good aid to recuperation.

A grounding stone, it is said to provide balance between the physical and spiritual, aid assertiveness and encourage personal independence. Legend has it that jasper could protect its wearer from snake and spider bites, and Native Americans traditionally used the stone in rain-making ceremonies.

Freshwater Pearl

When a single, rough grain of sand irritates an oyster, it is gradually transformed into a beautiful pearl. So too this gem reminds its wearer to transform the irritations of life, to seek serenity and to walk with dignity.

Long ago it was believed that pearls were moonbeams which fell into the ocean and were swallowed by oysters. In the East, pearls symbolise prosperity and long life, while in the West, they are said to represent innocence and a pure heart, instilling a sense of calm self-acceptance, while stimulating feminine integrity.

Amazonite

Amazonite is a member of the feldspar family and is characterised by its pale blue-green colour. Said to help its wearer to find a balance between the right and left sides of the brain, Amazonite combines analytical reasoning with intuitive wisdom - rather than focusing on one or the other - thus assisting its wearer in more effective communication.

Also known as the 'hope stone', Amazonite inspires courage and confidence and improves feelings of self-worth. When facing a difficult conversation or a challenging public-speaking engagement, Amazonite is therefore said to be one of the most beneficial stones to wear or carry.

Arctic Opal

'Arctic Opal' is not actually a form of opal, but a combination of deep blue Azurite and green Malachite, which are two forms of copper-based mineral ores. It is quite soft and fragile, and can be damaged by excessive exposure to heat and water. Over time, it gradually becomes greener as the Azurite weathers into Malachite.

Azurite is associated with intuition and truth, while Malachite is believed to encourage responsibility and fidelity, and to attract wealth to its wearer. Together, the two stones are said to link intuition and prosperity, making this an excellent stone for entrepreneurs.
