Purpose Pendant - Amber

I got a custom order for a purpose pendant, needing a meaning of good health, balance and after talking to her a bit, needing to overcome some fears. The customer gave me free creative rein over the project, saying "I trust your judgement"

These are the hardest custom orders. I always wonder in the back of my mind if they will like it.

Here is what I did:


I chose amber as the focal stone due to its healing properties.
Amber, according to mystical lore is beneficial for purifying the body, and general healing purposes. It is reputed to cleanse its environment by drawing out negativity, and to relieve physical pain the same way. It is used mystically to bring the energies of patience, protection, psychic shielding, romantic love, sensuality, purification, balance, healing and calmness to those who wear or carry it. It is considered a good luck charm for marriage.

Calcite increases and amplifies energy. All calcites are helpful in lessening of fear and reducing stress. Calcite is a protecting, purifying, grounding and centering stone, and can help bring inner peace. Calcite is also a stone of spirituality, wisdom and reconciliation.

Citrine is known as a "success" stone because it is said in folklore to promote success and abundance, especially in business and commerce. Its lore also says that it enhances mental clarity, confidence, happiness and will power. Citrine is purported to bring good fortune, sometimes in very unexpected ways. Citrine is also a good general protection stone according to crystal healing lore. It is said to alleviate depression and self-doubt, and diminish irrational mood swings due to the effect of mental clarity it has.


Sunstone is a powerful stone for dispelling fears and phobias of all kinds. In addition to dispelling fears and phobias, sunstone also decreases stress and lifts depression. Sunstone also brings good luck and abundance. This stone increases personal power and will, as well as life force energy.

Pearls attune the wearer to ebb and flow of life. They are calming and centering. They give purity and promote faith, charity, and integrity, truth and loyalty. They especially enhance personal integrity.

Then added the color blue for peace.

It makes for a stunning combination - the warmth of the yellows and the 'pop' of the blue. I would compliment most any outfit, and serves a purpose at the same time!
