Australian Moonstone 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 deeply 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.
This strand features a striking variety of moonstone sourced from Australia, showcasing a natural gradient of color that flows from smoky dark grey to soft light grey and into warm tan. The 8.5mm smooth roundels have a subtle flash that shimmers across the surface, while the ombre arrangement enhances the earthy richness of the stone’s palette. It’s an elegant, organic look, grounded, warm, and beautifully versatile.
Moonstone is celebrated as a stone of intuition and balance, long associated with feminine energy and cycles of renewal. Believed to hold a calming, stabilizing presence, it connects the wearer to inner wisdom and emotional harmony. This Australian variety, with its grounded tones, carries an especially earthy quality, making it both mystical and soothing.
