The Shania Chrysocolla Bracelet

The Shania Bracelet is stunning, in its beautiful contrast between Chrysocolla green and mustard yellow knotting. The beads have been crafted into unique cube shapes, another cool contrast between the beads and the round yellow knots in between. My own version of this very bracelet led me to the idea of June Moon's artisan line.

All of the materials used in this handcrafted, one-of-a-kind piece are genuine and high-quality. The gold will not tarnish, and most importantly, the minerals are real and from the earth. They are special and the reason this piece exists: June Moon makes these pieces to celebrate the intersection of nature and design.

Stones
Chrysocolla is a mineral similar in look and composition to Turquoise, but some would argue that Chrysocolla is far more interesting. This mineral occurs in massive deposits, many of which look bubbled from the obvious geothermal heat that impacted its formations. Chrysocolla also has a wider spectrum of blues and greens than is typically expressed in Turquoise, particularly in one piece. Both minerals are found near copper ores, and sometimes you can see slight copper veins running through a piece of Chrysocolla. This mineral is believed to symbolize Gaia, or Mother Earth, and bring us closer in our relationship with her. It's also worn as a talisman for public speaking, as Chrysocolla is understood by some to help with communication and clear personal expression.
