About this Product
This natural stone statement necklace and earring set is designed with gorgeous blue lace agate beads and a large matching pendant.
Various types of agate gemstones have been valued throughout history, all the way back to the Neolithic Era. It is believed these stones were originally used as amulets of healing, and this tradition continued on through Ancient Greek and Egyptian civilizations. It's said the Greek philosopher Theophrastus gave agate its name because he found the stone in the Achates River of present day Sicily, Italy. (The River has since been renamed to the Dirillo River.)
Agate is a birthstone associated with the months of May, June and even September, depending on the culture. Agate as a general gemstone is also connected to the Zodiac signs Gemini and Capricorn.
With its soft blue color, it's no surprise blue lace agate is said to be a soothing stone. The circular, graceful banding is stimulating, but still exudes a calm energy. Blue lace agate is said to be a stone of communication, making it easier for people to become confident and articulate. For this reason, it's considered a good idea to wear jewelry with blue lace agate or carry a stone in your pocket when required to speak in public. As a bonus, blue lace agate is sometimes referred to as the Stone of the Diplomat, helping ensure your words are not angry and your meaning is clear. Since agate has a slower vibration frequency than most stones, it is valued as a stabilizing gemstone.

Dixie Dazzle Jewelry
Meet the Maker
Dixie Dazzle Jewelry is a small family-owned business in Tennessee. We are a husband and wife team (I have to brag - we just celebrated our 54th anniversary). Carla is the designer and Ken takes care of shipping and Honey-Do projects.
I create everything by hand in my Birchwood, TN studio, which is located near Chattanooga. My favorite materials are natural stones, freshwater pearls, anything vintage and my own handmade art cameos and ceramic components. My styles include Boho, statement pieces, Victorian and Art Deco, to name a few.
My passion for creating jewelry began when I couldn't find jewelry for a certain dress. This was in the late 1990's in the earliest days of E-Bay & I was a bit leary of shopping there. When I got on E-Bay I was totally amazed at all the natural stones & replica cameos that I had no idea existed. It is an understatement to say that I was "hooked".
I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
