Purple Amethyst Macrame with Crystal Quartz and Amber

    $69.00

This necklace features a great piece of brute purple amethyst stone from Bolivia. I love the strong energy that emanates from a natural, raw stone that hasn’t be shaped or polished, and the amethyst in this necklace looks very powerful, with a beautiful shade of purple (unfortunately you can’t appreciate it in the picture). The macramé design is shaped like a big diamond on the bottom, with the amethyst hanging from it, a round crystal quartz in the center of the diamond and an amber drop on top. The rest of the necklace is shaped like another diamond, but bigger, that goes around the neck, and has golden color glass beads embedded around it.

I am very fond of the piece of crystal quartz that goes in the center: it was a gift from Master Mia Hua,  the Buddhist master that I was blessed to meet one day while working at Fort Lauderdale beach. She had just moved to Florida form California and was walking around, getting to know the area. I was working under my usual palm tree selling my jewelry. She invited me to the temple in Tamarac where I taught macramé to the children and learned Buddhist teachings. It was a wonderful experience. When I was leaving she gave me a couple of these quartz pieces for me to work. 

To clasp the necklace insert the jarina seeds (from the Amazon) into the bead opening.  The necklace can be washed with gentle soap and a soft brush.  It can be used in water since all of its materials are water resistant.
