The White Vinyard Earrings

I'm not really into stone lore so much. It's kind of a language, like the old Victorian system of truly "saying it with flowers". Floriography enabled people to send coded messages to one another by way of colorful vegitation. For example, an arrangement of Bird's Foot Trefoil, White Carnation and Lobelia meant that you might want to think again before walking down that dark alley. Whereas a bouquet of coriander and lime blossom meant that you were TOTALLY going to get some.

Stones don't have quite the same specific meanings, although obviously some people put a great deal of stock in their benefits. I've often heard that a stone that you connect with is YOUR stone, so if I have a stone, I suppose that it's the White moonstone. I'm not sure if I like it because it seems to have an inner glow or that it goes with absolutely everything in my wardrobe, but I've always felt drawn to it and use it often in my jewelry.

The White Vineyard earrings came from a dream where I was walking through an entirely white landscape, complete with white fruit on the vines. These earrings feature moonstone AND freshwater pearls, which compliment eachother so nicely; the opacity of pearls sets off the luminosity of the moonstones. Check them out here.
