This handcrafted pendant is part of the Persephone's Return collection; a small gathering of jewels that pay homage to the shifting seasons, inspired either by the quiet end of Winter or the bright beginning of Spring. It features an incredible piece of teardrop shaped Moonstone, filled with beautiful rainbow flashes that shimmer in the light.

💎 MOONSTONE LORE:
Moonstone has been cherished in jewellery for thousands of years. The ancient Romans believed it was formed from solidified moonlight, while in India, it has long been considered sacred, especially for lovers, and is still given as a traditional wedding gift. Used for centuries across the Orient, Moonstone was also adored during the Art Nouveau era, prized by jewellers for its ethereal glow. In European folklore, it was believed to reconcile estranged lovers and soothe restless sleep.
Known as The Traveller’s Stone, Moonstone has been worn for protection, particularly at night or while journeying over water. Spiritually, it’s a crystal of new beginnings, supporting first love, fresh chapters, and emotional balance. Said to enhance intuition, creativity, and feminine energy, it’s also cherished as a powerful fertility stone and a gentle aid in nurturing confidence and inner calm.
