Moonstone is a variety of feldspar, known for its delicate adularescence - a milky to bluish light that shimmers under its surface when moved. This effect is created due to the fine structures inside the stone, on which the light is scattered. The very appearance of the moonstone is reminiscent of the moonlight and the variability of the night sky.
In the esoteric tradition, the moonstone is associated with intuition, sensitivity, the feminine principle and natural life cycles. Its changing light resembles the individual phases of the Moon - periods of growth, fulfillment, retreat and a new beginning. Symbolically, it represents acceptance of change and trust in the natural rhythm of life.
The crescent moon on both sides of the moonstone creates an image of the lunar cycle – the waxing and waning moon, between which stands its fullness. At the same time, it can resemble the symbol of the Triple Goddess, in which the three forms of the moon represent the Virgin, the Mother and the Old Woman, i.e. youth, maturity and wisdom.
The combination of the moonstone and the three lunar phases creates a piece of jewelry about the cycle, transformation and feminine power. The stone in the middle represents fullness and the present moment, while the crescents on the sides remind us that every period has its time – something comes, peaks and leaves again so that it can begin again.
The construction of the jewelry is handmade from surgical steel and the connecting material is an alloy of tin and silver. The jewelry is then treated similarly to silver – we polish it once in a while. The more the jewelry is worn, the better, it polishes itself on the clothes, the skin of the wearer, etc. The metal is stable and does not contain nickel or heavy metals. Jewelry can be worn all the time, even in water, but it is a good idea to dry it afterwards and care for it more often.
