Straight out of a fairy tale... I will use a beautiful natural moonstone, (approx 16x12mm) for your custom made pendant.
The flashy colour of the moonstone looks awesome against the antiqued sterling silver. The result being a real fairy tale piece. The leaves and all of the wire work will be solid sterling silver, as will the chain and hand made clasp.
The overall length of the pendant will be around 2.5cms in total length and the chain can be a length chosen by you. If you want a specific size pendant, please leave me a note at the time of ordering as i am always happy to oblige.
Due to the organic nature of the wire work, (no soldering) you can guarantee that no two pieces will ever be exactly the same. Your very own piece of magic! Your necklace will come beautifully gift wrapped with an anti tarnish pouch for storage and a silver cloth, to help keep her looking lovely. A beautiful gift for a beautiful woman and a magical piece which could quite easily belong to a woodland fairy.

It is a highly prized gift for lovers as it is thought to arouse tender passion. Lovers who possess a moonstone are said to be able to foretell their future life together. It is said that if you give your lover a moonstone necklace when the moon is full, then you will always have passion with each other!

Moonstone is associated with all goddesses, but especially the moon goddesses.
