Black Moonstone & Freshwater Pearl Sterling Silver Necklace

Black moonstone is a relatively rare variety of feldspar, found primarily in Madagascar, its dark base colour ranging from charcoal to deep slate with a silvery adularescence that moves across the surface as the stone catches the light. That inner glow, soft, shifting, and entirely its own is what makes moonstone unlike anything else in the mineral world.

Where white moonstone is associated with clarity and the full moon, black moonstone carries the energy of the new moon; beginnings, potential, and the quiet power of what has not yet taken form. It is said to support intuition and inner knowing, to help with the release of old patterns, and to offer a grounding protection that feels steady rather than heavy. It works with the third eye and root chakras, bridging the intuitive and the embodied.

Black moonstone is particularly associated with feminine energy and cyclical wisdom, the kind of knowing that comes not from thinking but from feeling, and from trusting what is sensed before it is understood.

This piece features a natural black moonstone cabochon in a sterling silver wire wrap setting, the wrap chosen to hold the stone with care while letting its surface remain visible and alive. A single freshwater pearl accent bead sits alongside the stone, a small and considered detail that brings a softness to the piece and echoes the moonstone's own quiet luminosity.

Suspended from an 18 inch sterling silver chain, the necklace sits beautifully at the collarbone — a piece that rewards wearing close.
