SYMBOLIC & HEALING PROPERTIES

November’s birthstone is topaz. More commonly golden topaz but blue topaz too. The Zodiac symbol is the scorpion - the astrological image of metamorphosis. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, the planet of death and rebirth or transformational energy, also symbolised by the phoenix. Scorpios make formidable enemies but wonderful and nurturing friends and partners.

Wearing your blue topaz pendant will help you to relax and bring harmony and sweetness to your relationships. The scorpion’s tail is symbolically depicted in this pendant by the squared off sections of gold surrounding the large, faceted blue topaz stone. The inverted triangle is an ancient Celtic symbol of water, and Scorpio is a water sign, hence the four triangles around the rim of your pendant.

DESCRIPTION

The large, faceted blue topaz at the centre of this pendant is stunning.  Held in place by 16 flat posts in an oval disc of gold with 4 cz's and 4 triangles on the rim of the disc.

DIMENSIONS

The pendant is 20 x  20 mm (23mm top to bottom including triangles) with a 10 x 8 mm blue topaz and 2mm cz’s. Both pendant and chain are made from recycled brass with one micron of recycled 18k gold vermeil, so the gold should last well. The reason some of our pieces are made of brass, not silver, is that should the vermeil begin to wear off, it will not show nearly so much on brass thus giving your piece a long life of wear.  Please take care not to wear perfume near your pendant and chain as it will erode the gold vermeil.

The dotty chain is 18 inches long in total, including two inches of extension chain and fastened with a lobster claw.

All Gem Bazaar jewellery comes in a handsome, branded, recycled and recyclable box.
