{"product_id":"mother-of-pearl-lapis-labradorite-tidal-stretch-bracelet","title":"Mother of Pearl, Lapis Lazuli \u0026 Labradorite Tidal Stretch Bracelet","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is something in the combination of these three stones that feels like looking into deep water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMother of pearl opens the piece with a shifting, iridescent light, the same luminous material that lines the inner chamber of the mollusc shell, formed slowly over years by the same creature that produces the pearl itself. Faceted into small cubes, each bead catches light from multiple angles, creating a continuous shimmer along the wrist that moves with every gesture. It carries the energy of the ocean: calm, protective, and deeply intuitive, associated with the water element and the moon, and said to soothe the emotions and bring a quality of gentle, sustained clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLapis lazuli holds the depth. One of the oldest stones in continuous human use, ground into pigment for the blues of Renaissance paintings and worn as a stone of truth and wisdom across ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, its colour is one of the most saturated in the natural world, a blue so dense it reads almost as night sky. It works with the third eye and throat chakras, associated with deep knowing, clear vision, and the kind of inner authority that does not need to announce itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabradorite moves between the two. Known above all for its labradorescence; the phenomenon by which light refracts within the stone's internal structure to produce flashes of blue, gold, and green that appear and disappear as the stone moves.  It provides the bridge between the white of the mother of pearl and the deep blue of the lapis, shifting between both depending on the light. A stone of transformation and intuition, it is associated with the third eye and crown chakras, and with the ability to see what lies beneath the surface of things.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSterling silver accent beads complete the piece, their cool, clean tone sitting in close harmony with the aquatic palette and adding a precision that grounds the natural variation of the stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStrung on stretch cord and made to fit the average UK women's wrist size of 6.5 inches. Bead sizes range from 3–4mm, creating a delicate, layered effect that sits close to the wrist without weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHandcrafted at Rachel Hartley Atelier.
