This beautiful necklace features an Orthoceras and blue Topaz Sterling Silver Pendant. Orthoceras, also known as Orthoceratites, is a genus of extinct nautiloid cephalopod. Its name is derived from the words “straight horn”, referring to its long, conical shell. These creatures roamed the seas during the Ordovician Period (485 million - 443 million years ago). They are the ancient ancestors of ammonites and squid that can be found in sizes ranging from a centimeter to over 14 feet long.
Blue Topaz, a rare variety of Topaz, is an aluminum fluorine silicate mineral that forms in tiny (well formed) vertical hexagonal crystals, as well as small prismatic shards. The color is caused from unstable light that's directly absorbed from the inclusions of the iron atoms.
By meditating with the fossil’s energy, one may feel a connection to that ancient Earth and all the knowledge that it contains.
