This striking necklace is made from semi-precious stones, a hand-cast resin ammonite fossil, some superior quality Czech glass rondelle beads and sterling silver. It is designed to sit around the collarbone to do justice to the unique contents of the piece. It has a sterling silver extender chain, finished with a gemstone bead, and measures from 16 inches to 18¼ inches (40½ to 46 cm).

The centrepiece is a delightful resin ammonite in a pewter and mauve colour. The original was found by myself when fossil hunting on the Jurassic NE coast just south of Whitby. This lovely town was my home for around 10 years. Ammonites, belemnites, gryphaea and other fossils are commonly found on this stretch of coastline. The dark silvery ammonite is complemented by the following gemstones: agate, amethyst, ametrine, charoite, haematite and larvikite.

The combination of stones in this jewellery are said to relieve depression, decrease negativity and neutralise anxiety, tension and stress. They have the ability to heal physical, mental and emotional exhaustion, providing in their place peace, calm and serenity. If change in your life is inevitable these stones can instigate it. They will also help the wearer to adapt to changes and provide the inner strength and courage to keep going through hardship, especially if it involves addiction, money or legal worries. You may not know what the future holds but you’ll have support. Your increased willpower will enable your goals to be achieved more quickly than you expected and don’t worry, you should expect to have the self-confidence and wisdom to see your project through, whatever it might be.

This necklace contains a variety of polished, faceted and rough stones to provide a pleasing mixture of textures. It comes in a gift box with the descriptive enclosure photographed which tells the new owner of this unique jewellery all about its qualities. A complementary polishing cloth is also included.
