Tribal Drop Earrings Tan and Black Corn-bead Tears on Brass

These earrings are crafted from natural seeds commonly known as Job's Tears or Corn-Beads. In 1830's America the Cherokee people were forcefully moved over the land, and these seeds are said to be the tears dropped along the way. Though not quite that old these seed beads are reclaimed from a vintage necklace to be remade into these earrings. The necklace had been in the collection of a woman who had numerous antique objects from Asia, so I can only imagine how the strand of North American beads came into her possession, my guess would be the glory of the 1960's. Polished round red brown petrified wood and black spotted fossil bone accent the seeds along with black ceramic glass to create earrings that hang straight from cleaned vintage brass wire nails for jewelry that's neutral in color and simple yet still exciting.

Fossil Bryozoan Amulet Good Luck Charm Wire Wrapped Pendant

Add this simple pendant charm to your favorite chain or cord to wear as a necklace, tie onto a staff or book thong, or use as a part of your own metaphysical jewelry creation. Wrapped with 20 gauge German made wire that is copper based with silverplate. This genuine bryzoan fossil stone from the USA (Ohio) has also been lightly coated with a durable varnish to provide a slight gloss.

Metaphysical:
It's said that fossil bryozoans can encourage personal growth and provide support during difficult times. They may be used to aide one in getting from one place to another either physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Fossil stones in general may be used to increase creativity, aide in shamanic journeying, used to facilitate communication with one's Spirit Guides and Totem Animals, may allow access to past life memories and the Akashic record for protection, for grounding, and to connect one with Earth energies.
