This beautiful gemstone cross is set with six faceted stones, two varieties of blue topaz and four tourmalines, each chosen for the depth and clarity of their colour. No two stones are identical, and together they create a piece that is quietly extraordinary on close inspection.
London blue topaz is one of the deepest and most saturated varieties of blue topaz, its rich inky blue the result of irradiation treatment applied to natural topaz. Swiss blue topaz is lighter and more vivid, a bright, electric blue that sits closer to the sky than the ocean. Together, they bring a range of blue tones to the piece, from deep and contemplative to clear and energising.
Topaz works primarily with the throat chakra. It is a stone associated with truth, clarity of communication, and the alignment of thought with intention. London blue topaz, in particular, carries a deep, focused energy, said to support those who need to think clearly under pressure, cut through confusion, and speak with authority and calm. Swiss blue topaz carries a lighter, more expansive quality, associated with openness, inspiration, and the kind of clarity that comes from stepping back and seeing the wider picture. Together, they offer both depth and lightness; the capacity to go deep and the perspective to rise above.
The mixture of tourmaline stones bring the full range of tourmaline's healing properties to the piece. Green tourmaline works with the heart chakra, bringing vitality, growth, and grounded renewal. Pink tourmaline encourages inward compassion, self-acceptance, and emotional courage. Yellow tourmaline adds solar plexus energy, confidence, clarity of purpose, and joy. Together, the tourmalines speak to the heart, the self, and the will.
The cross is one of the oldest and most universal symbols in human history, predating Christianity and appearing across cultures as a representation of the meeting point between heaven and earth, the spiritual and the physical, the eternal and the present moment. Worn as jewellery, it carries a quiet weight, a reminder of something larger than the everyday, whatever that means to the person wearing it.
A piece for those who are drawn to working with multiple stones intentionally, or for those who simply find themselves drawn to something that holds more than it first appears to.
Set in sterling silver on an 18 inch flat cable chain. The cross sits at 2.7cm in length, bail included (2cm bail not included), a considered scale that wears close and quietly.
Arrives gift-ready.
