Sodalite

Sodalite Necklace
This necklace is a simple design that is comprised of sodalite beads only . I used a few large nuggets separated by a rondelle-tube bead-rondelle to emphasize the front of the necklace and finished the rest of the necklace with a pattern of  tube beads and rondelles.   I like the solo coIor and feel like this necklace can be worn with many things.  I finished it off with a simple hook clasp with a rope design.  Sodalite is a semi-precious stone that is light to dark pure blue in color with white calcite running through it.  It is mined in Namibia, Brazil, Canada and the USA.  Sodalite is known to have healing properties. Sodalite balances the mental and emotional bodies. It fuels a person's creative processes and also enhances wisdom.  The necklace hangs slightly heavy and feels nice to the touch.
