A selection of amazonite set jewellery comprised of a string of graduated beads, two brooches, three rings and two pairs of drop earrings.

We are pleased to be offering this lot from the stock of family run firm Shipton and Co., who were based in Hastings White Rock area, and who were unfortunately forced to close their doors in 2014 after a section of the rock face above collapsed onto their shop, making the building unsafe. Named after the river Amazon, Amazonite has been found to have been crafted and used as far back as 16,000 BCE.  A popular thought is that the stone was named after the fearsome band of all female Amazon warriors of Ancient Mesopotamia, who were reported to have adorned their shields with amazonite to increase their strength.  It is a highly regarded stone amongst those who believe in the benefits of it's ancient healing and spiritual properties.
