Details

I created this beautiful dainty necklace using raw tanzanite beads, tiny pyrite beads, as well as sterling silver beads, chain and closure. Ideal for everyday use, as well as layering with other necklaces.

The length of the necklace is adjustable approx 34-38cmand it is also available with golden plated sterling silver finish, as well as a solid gold 14K one. In the last photo it is demonstrated as a set together with the tanzanite choker.

Tanzanite is a powerful stone for activating compassion and increasing the ability to speak the truth in your heart. It is an integrating stone that helps awaken an enlightened consciousness based in wholeness.

Ephyra was one of the Nereids. In Greek mythology, the Nereids or Nereidesare sea nymphs (female spirits of sea waters), the 50 daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris, sisters to their brother Nerites. They often accompany Poseidon, the god of the sea, and can be friendly and helpful to sailors (such as the Argonauts in their search for the Golden Fleece). The Nereids symbolized everything that is beautiful and kind about the sea. Their melodious voices sang as they danced around their father. They are represented as beautiful women, crowned with branches of red coral and dressed in white silk robes trimmed with gold. These nymphs are particularly associated with the Aegean Sea, where they dwelt with their father Nereus in the depths within a golden palace.
