It is the birthstone for March. Sometimes referred to as the “breath stone” it is also believed to be closely connected with breathing and encouraging calmness, insight, and truth.
ABOUT FINE SILVER
My fine silver bezels and raw materials are 99.9% pure silver, and sourced from a reputable supplier in the United States with a history of responsible and ethical practices.
My fine silver beads and components are made completely by hand in the remote mountain area of Northern Thailand by the Karen Hill Tribe. Known and respected for their skill and expert craftsmanship in silver-smithing, and using centuries old techniques, these artisans create pieces of a distinctive style unique to them. Karen Hill Tribe silver pieces are made of a higher purity than 92.5% sterling silver. Because the actual range is 95-99% purity, these pieces are softer, have a whiter color and will not tarnish as readily as sterling silver. Beads may have a visible seam. Sizes and shapes may vary slightly with these handcrafted items. All of my Hill Tribe fine silver is purchased directly from the source using ethical and fair trade practices.
