I have taken inspiration for this piece from the stories surrounding Eriu, a powerful goddess in Irish mythology and the namesake of Ireland.  Ériu is the goddess of sovereignty, abundance, and fertility, and is often seen as a personification of Ireland. Her name comes from Old Irish and means"fullness," "bounty," or "abundance". Ériu was the daughter of Delbáeth and Ernmas of the Tuatha Dé Danann, a supernatural tribe of magical people who inhabited Ireland in ancient times!  Éire is the Irish Gaelic name for Ireland(air-uh) which derived from Ériu and was the official name of the Republic of Ireland from 1937 to 1949.  Pargasite is the crystal associated with this diety, its rare and incredibley expensive so I have used these large wavy disk beads to invoke the energy of Pargasite, which, on a spiritual level, is believed to be a powerful heart healer and emotional mender.  Coupled with lovely oval beads in moss agate, associated with growth, renewal, and a connection to nature, to add to its earthy tone.  I have included some silver glass pearls and two gorgeous, olive green, silver lined focal beads, to bring a certain energetic vibrancy to the piece.  Handmade, bespoke design.  It measures 23" (total length)  Large beads 3.5cms oval beads 2.5cms and weight 200grms.
