AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This bracelet is made of round beads featuring a natural mix of red-pink, blue and olive green tones, the characteristic combination of ruby embedded in a matrix of cyanite, sometimes associated with inclusions of fuchsite. Each bead is unique, none reproduces exactly the patterns of its neighbor.

In crystal healing terms, this association is sought for the balance it would evoke between the energy of ruby, associated with vitality and passion, and that of cyanite, reputed to promote mental clarity and communication.

The ruby-cyanite mainly comes from Tanzanian deposits where red corundum forms in contact with metamorphic rocks rich in cyanite, giving birth to this particular two-tone matrix.

The bright rose-red fluorescence under UV light is explained by the presence of chromium in the ruby structure: it is this same trace of chromium that gives the corundum its red color and that triggers, under ultraviolet light, this characteristic luminescence. The surrounding cyanite, on the other hand, remains dark or hardly reacts, which enhances the contrast and allows the minerals within the same bead to be clearly distinguished. This test confirms the presence of ruby within the bead.

1. Secure shipping with tracking number.

2. Shipped twice a week. For Europe and internationally, the delivery time may vary from 8 to 15 days depending on the destination and the time needed for customs checks at the borders.

3. All my stones are genuine, untreated in color, resin, or plastic. They have all been carefully selected, but as they are natural and handmade products, they may sometimes show small imperfections.

4. The elastic bracelet stringing is solid, suited to the weight and size.

5. The stones have changing reflections depending on the light, indoor lighting or the sun.
The photos were taken from different angles and lighting conditions to present you with the different aspects.

Thank you for your interest and happy bidding.
