Here is the piece for October’s raffle.

A silver Lapis and opal pendant

Lapis lazuli is one of the oldest opaque gemstones in history--more than 6,500 years!

This deep blue stone includes tiny flecks of mica, like a night sky full of stars. 

Its most well-known source is deep in the mountains of modern Afghanistan.

This stone's two-part name comes from two different cultures:

lapis is a Latin word meaning "stone," while lazuli comes from the Persian word lazhuward, meaning "blue." 

It is not an element nor a mineral—

it is a rock containing multiple minerals: lazurite, diopside, calcite, pyrite and more.

Since the earliest of times, lapis lazuli has been associated with strength and courage, royalty and wisdom, intellect and truth.

Lapis enhances psychic and intuitive abilities, and connects the spiritual realm with the physical. 

It can help with creativity, self-expression, and communication.

Lapis resonates with the vibration of truth and enlightenment

and can be used to open the third eye and to also stimulate the pineal gland.

Fire Opals help by clarifying, amplifying and mirroring our feelings. With opals in your life, you can find less inhibition and more spontaneity as they raise the kundalini force. These stones have often been associated with

the higher or Crown Chakra and Third Eye Chakra. 

They assist in visualization, imagination, dreams, and the power of healing.

An amazing and wonderful combination of both stones within one pendant
