About Copper

Gary swears by his copper bracelet and ring for his “tennis elbow.” I’ve used copper for menstrual cramps, as well as cramping in my fingers from wire-wrapping jewelry. Add to that, I simply like the look of it!

Copper is a metal ore found all over the world. The color ranges from orange to soft red-brown to a deep brick red. Copper was probably one of the first metals used to make objects by man. Tools found can be traced back to fourth millennium.

Used for its healing properties since the Middle Ages, copper is used for many ailments, especially inflammation. Used to alleviate menstruation cramps, it also can prevent calcification of the joints. To use its healing powers, Copper is best worn directly on the skin.

Copper encourages a positive attitude and self-confidence. It improves decision making and brings harmony among members of a family.

Sodalite - Enhance your creativity!

I don’t know why I don’t work with sodalite more often. When I do, I’m always struck by its beauty. In the necklace shown above, I've combined it with big round beads of white jade.

Sodalite is a quartz sodium-calcium compound. The color is deep, dark blue with white inclusions of calcium. It can be found in Brazil, Africa, China, and the United States.

Since ancient times Sodalite has been the stone of artists, singers, and those in creative endeavors. In ancient Greece artists carried sodalite to develop their creative skills.

An excellent stone for reducing high blood pressure, Sodalite has a regulatory effect on the thyroid and all glandular functions, including diabetes. It is said to be effective in combating the effects of natural and artificial radiation.

Believed to promote inspiration and creativity while providing protection, Sodalite symbolizes self-confidence and loyalty. It promotes spiritual harmony and is good stone for calming hot-tempered people.

Sodalite has a zodiacal affinity for Sagittarius.
