Forest Firelight Necklace & Earring Set | Aventurine & Moonstone

Handcrafted with Intention: Emily makes each of these sets by hand in our Medford, Oregon studio. Only three will ever exist. The green aventurine comes from her personal collection, and when it's gone, it's gone. A forest at night with the fire still going. One of three, ever. For years, Emily has kept a small stash of green aventurine in her personal collection. Not shop inventory. Hers. The stones she'd take out, look at, and put away again, waiting for the design that deserved them. This is that design, and there's only enough aventurine left for three sets. That isn't a marketing device; it's arithmetic. The set reads like a scene. Green aventurine, the traditional stone of opportunity and heart-centered growth, stands in for the forest itself. Yellow tiger eye brings the firelight: courage, focus, a golden glow that gives the softer stones direction. Red jasper sits underneath it all like embers in the earth, steady and warm. And white moonstone rests over everything the way moonlight settles on woods after dark, cool, intuitive, calm. The necklace layers three strands of these stones on copper and bronze, adjustable from 16 to 18 inches, so it sits right on everything from a bare collarbone to a winter sweater. The matching earrings are white moonstone on bronze: the moon, carried at each ear, while the forest and fire rest at your throat. Copper and bronze give the whole set an old-world warmth that only deepens as the metals age. Every stone is genuine, so color and pattern vary within each strand. The set arrives in a velour pouch, though at this level a person could argue for a small ceremony instead. "These aventurine stones have been in my personal collection for years. I'd pull them out, hold them up to the window, and put them back because nothing I sketched felt worthy of them. When this design finally came together, forest, fire, embers, moon, I knew this was it. I counted the stones and I have enough for three sets. So that's what there will be. Three. I'm keeping none of them, which feels right. They waited long enough to be worn." — Emily Whitlock, Co-Founder & Designer-Maker The Artistry in the Details A four-stone composition: Aventurine for the forest, tiger eye for the fire, jasper for the embers, moonstone for the light over it all. Earth, fire, heart, and moon in one scene. A genuine run of three: The green aventurine is the last of Emily's personal collection. When the third set sells, this design retires permanently. Built in layers: Three strands, adjustable from 16 to 18 inches, with matching moonstone-on-bronze earrings to finish the set. Metals that live: Copper and bronze develop character with wear. A polishing cloth brings back the brightness whenever you want it. One of three. Then the forest goes quiet. Key Elements Green Aventurine The heart of the set and the reason only three exist. From Emily's personal collection, traditionally called the stone of opportunity, associated with growth, renewal, and heart-centered energy. Yellow Tiger Eye The firelight. Golden, earthy stones traditionally connected with courage, confidence, and focus, giving the set its warmth and direction. Red Jasper The embers beneath the earth. Deep red stones long associated with grounding, endurance, and steadiness. White Moonstone The light over the forest, and the whole of the matching earrings. Luminous white stones tied by tradition to intuition, balance, and inner calm. Copper & Bronze The warm metals holding all three strands and the earring settings. Both develop a lived-in patina over time; both polish back to bright.
