A gorgeous teardrop of chrysocolla, copper electroformed with star accents.
Chrysocolla is often mistaken for turquoise because they share many visual similarities. It can often be found intermingled with malachite, turquoise and azurite, making a beautiful mix of colors and textures.
Chrysocolla is the gentlest of stones. Its main role is to soothe, calm and inspire. This semi-precious stone has the ability to bring harmony, increase wisdom and guide you toward discretion. It promotes level headedness, encouraging clarity of thought and a neutral, calm attitude during turbulence. Use it to decrease nervousness and irritability.
There is a history of this stone being worn during negotiations. As an ambassador, Cleopatra wore chrysocolla jewelry everywhere she went. The history of Apache chrysocolla being used as a stone of gentle healing coincides with the stone’s history in other cultures. Legends originating in Tibet and Africa also tell of healings through the use of chrysocolla.
