Andesine Hand-Knotted Strand Necklace in Sterling Silver

There’s an undeniably sensuous allure to a hand-knotted strand of gemstones. Each bead moves with a liquid grace, the silk thread giving the necklace a supple drape that molds effortlessly against the skin. In the hand, they’re a joy to roll between your fingers, smooth and rhythmic with just the right weight. It’s a tactile pleasure—flexible, grounding, and endlessly satisfying. I adore layering these strands; they bring a lush, polished finish to any outfit, whether paired with other necklaces or worn alone as a statement of quiet luxury. Each one is knotted on silk thread chosen to complement the stones, a detail that makes the piece as refined as it feels.

Andesine is a stone of quiet fire, rare and captivating with its spectrum of rusty reds. This strand shifts between translucent glimmers and deeper, more opaque shades, creating a natural rhythm of color that feels both earthy and luminous. The faceted surfaces catch the light with a subtle flash, giving the necklace a mysterious glow that draws you in without being loud. It carries a grounded strength while still holding something otherworldly, like embers glowing low in the dark.

Metaphysically, andesine is thought to balance the root and heart chakras, offering both stability and openness. It’s said to encourage inner strength, connection, and clarity, a stone that resonates with authenticity and grounded passion.
