A brass claw (found at a market in margate- no idea of its origin!) is clutching a smol but powerful Lemurian quartz, on a sterling silver chain with a brass shackle and a sterling silver buried band.
The piece deconstructs. Remove the shackle and wear the claw and crystal as a pendant alone. The sterling silver buried band slides free as a size P ring. One object, several ways to carry it. Like most our items - this is a totally unique talisman.
Lemurian crystals are distinguished by their horizontal striations, ladder-like ridges etched into the surface as though the stone itself is a record. Ancient wisdom traditions hold these markings as encoded memory, left by a civilisation that understood the deep interconnection of all living things. To work with a Lemurian is to tune into that frequency: unity, compassion, the understanding that separation is illusion. Also like all Lemurians, I don't recommend keeping it in your bedroom until you are accustomed to it. Many people find the vibrations very high and it keeps their brains buzzing.
The Garuda is mythical, bird-like deity - defender of the cosmos - symbolising primordial wisdom, fearlessness, and the swift awakening of Dzogchen meditation. Often depicted as a protector overcoming negativity and protector of the Buddha and the Dharma, symbolising the strength needed to overcome obstacles on the path to enlightenment. So tapping into the Garuda's energy now and them, seems potent, and perfect for this moment in time. I wanted this to be gold as Garuda's are linked to the sun, went with the next best metal.
