Gidgee , Moonstone & Pyrite Macrame Necklace - 'Spirit of Dryad' Talisman

You are looking at a Gidgee wood, Blue-flash Moonstone, Pyrite & Amethyst tone glass Macrame Necklace - 'Spirit of Dryad' Talisman.

This gorgeous Gidgee pendant has been hand-finished by Nathan - Our Little Shed, before being woven into this talisman by me.  The Gidgee has a beautiful high-grade Blue Flash Moonstone Heart embedded in the wood pendant, and accompanied by Pyrite and Amethyst tone glass beading and woven into Black Linhasita cording.  

What is Gidgee?
Gidgee is a tree endemic to NT, Qld and NSW and is better known as the 'Stinking Wattle' due to the distinctive odour it emits during in humid temperatures. It is extremely dense, being one of the most pest resistant and the third hardest wood in the world.  The deep brown wood is the inner 'heartwood' and the lighter yellow wood is the outer 'sapwood'.   
Gidgee wattle trees are a symbol of strength, resilience and positivity in new beginnings.  As one of the first trees to generate new growth after bushfires, Gidgee supports growth during self-discovery and soul renewal journeys.  Gidgee has a nurturing energy and natural warmth, beneficial and supportive to healers and care givers.

Moonstone is a crystal of connection to the feminine. A calming, peaceful crystal, it supports gentle kindness during self-care. Moonstone boosts intuitive understanding and helps us understand the messages of insight we receive. 

Pyrite is a crystal of confidence and protection. It is believed to support strength in will-power and promote positive motivation.  It is also known to stimulate mental clarity and awareness.

 

Given that Gidgee is the third hardest timber worldwide, the beautiful grain display and smoothly tactile nature of these pendants are an incredible show of Nathan's woodworking mastery and attention to detail.
