Writer's Necklace w/Shungite, Lapis, & Sodalite, Self-Expression I call this beautiful shungite necklace a "writer's necklace" because the stones were selected for their protective properties, as well as self-expression and communication (throat chakra). A lovely shungite drop bead is surrounded by lapis lazuli, sodalite, denim lapis and smokey quartz beads. This necklace is sure to give any writer the grounding they need, and a clear, creative mind to end that pesky writer's block. The shungite pendants are hand worked at the Russian factory, as opposed to mass produced, so they have many irregularities in terms of texture and shape. Shungite also contains dozens of different minerals and elements, so veins, specks, and interesting patterns are the norm, completely typical of authentic shungite. Note that natural gemstone colors and patterns may also vary. How to Measure Cording Length: The measurement I need is the full circle - starting at the middle drop bead, going ALL the way around the neck & back to the drop bead again. About the Clasp The necklace comes with a sturdy, self-aligning Mag-Lok clasp, which is an extremely strong rare earth magnet. To open the clasp, SLIDE the two halves apart - DO NOT PULL (a thumbnail is handy to get it started). Those with pacemakers should NOT use these magnets. If you need a different clasp, you can state your preference in the “Note” section during checkout. *Please note this is a custom item. Custom items cannot be fully refunded. What do the stones do? Lapis lazuli is known for shielding and deflecting negative energy, enhancing intuition, and offering protection from psychic attack. Lapis opens and balances the throat chakra and supports communication, self-expression, and power. Smokey quartz is said to offer EMF protection and grounding and remove negativity. It’s a powerful stone that emits high level of energy and can be transformative. Absorbs and transmutes energy. Benefits the root and solar plexus chakras.
