The Pome Necklace

These 10mm lapis lazuli beads remind me so much of summer in New England when the blueberries still have their bloom. They’re knotted on blue silk cord just like a string of pearls. The palladium and silver clasp is a focal point as well as a closure. One of a kind, handmade in the USA. Necklace is 35 inches long.

Lapis Lazuli has been prized for its intense blue color since the very first civilizations mined it almost 10,000 years ago. It is regarded as “The Wisdom Stone” and was worn by Egyptian, Babylonian, Minoan, Chinese, Greek, and Roman leaders. Wearing lapis is said to welcome truth and enhance intellect as well as enabling the deep sense of inner peace that comes with such knowing.
