Anchors have been symbols of strength, stability and hope since the early beginnings of human culture. They have been used by seamen to hold them strong during the worst of storms at sea, and to keep them steady at dock.
 
This necklace prominently features a hand-forged copper anchor pendant that is accented by radiant labradorite beads, Ethiopian heishi beads and faceted copper beads. Wear this in times that you need strength, or as a reminder that strength is always within yourself.
 
I can include a hypoallergenic coating to the copper findings and beads on the necklace for a $12.00 USD upcharge; please select "YES" under "Coating." Your necklace will be packed carefully in a small box, along with jewelry care instructions when needed.
 
Each necklace is handmade in my one-woman small jewelry studio, where I focus my attention and energy on the manifestation of the power of the stones and iconography that I choose. No two necklaces are ever exactly alike, so you are guaranteed a one-of-a-kind piece of artisanal jewelry every time that you make a purchase from my shop!

Labradorite has long been worn for its healing properties. It is known for its transformative powers -- assisting with emotional difficulties, overcoming self-doubt, starting a new project, letting go of the past -- and raising self-awareness and psychic abilities. It has been said by the Inuit people that this stone was a piece of the Aurora Borealis. Labradorite is associated with Virgo and Libra Zodiacs, and is the September birthstone.
