Black onyx meaning

7/3/2018

 
Black onyx necklace black onyx jewelry
Black onyx is the birthstone for Leos (for those born from July 23 - August 22)and the anniversary gemstone for the 10th year of marriage.

Onyx is said to be a protective stone and may be carried or worn for courage. It is also said to provide support in difficult times and to center your energy in times of mental or physical stress. It also offers the gift of wise decisions.

Contemporary authors say the onyx brings increased vigor, strength, stamina, and self control. It alleviates worry, tension, and nervousness and eliminates confusion and nightmares. 

All in all, the black onyx is a good stone to have nearby! 

What does the fleur de lis mean?

7/1/2018

 
Fleur de lis necklace, fleur de lis jewelry
The fleur de lis is a symbol that is deeply ingrained in Louisiana's history and I use it in many of my handmade jewelry designs, including the fleur de lis necklace, fleur de lis bracelet and fleur de lis earrings pictured above. Many people are interested in the fleur de lis meaning so I wanted to give you a little information about this beautiful and ancient symbol that is seen on the Louisiana state flag and in architecture across the state. 

The fleur de lis is  a considered a "stylized" 
lily (in French, fleur means "flower", and lis means "lily") that has been used since ancient times in association with  French royalty and in religious symbolism.  

The fleur de lis symbol has been regarded as a sign of purity since antiquity. In fact, the Catholic Church has used the fleur-de-lis emblem both as a symbol of the Holy Trinity as well as an emblem of the Virgin Mary.

So there you have it! Hopefully now you know a little more about this beautiful symbol than you knew before!

    Laura Teague handmade unique silver jewelry

    Hello! 

    I am Laura Teague and  you may as well know right up front that I am obsessed with sterling silver. 

    I have been making sterling silver (and sometimes gold) jewelry for about 15 years. I am largely self taught (lots and lots of practice!) but have also taken classes with local and nationally known metal workers. 

    Originally from Arkansas I currently live and work in my adopted home state, Louisiana, where we regularly dodge hurricanes but enjoy the wonderful people and food here!

    You can read more about me on my About Page.
