Handmade earrings featuring red carnelian gemstone beads, fire opal Swarovski crystals, and lead-safe pewter spiral birth goddess charms. The spiral symbolizes birth and growth. Makes a wonderful gift for someone wishing for a baby, pregnant, breastfeeding, or working in the birth-related occupation. Perfect as a thank-you gift for a midwife, a doula, or an obstetrician. The earrings are about 2.5 inches (6.5 cm) long. Red Carnelian is said to stimulate and balance the female reproductive system, reduce stress and anxiety, and help protect against miscarriage. Please note that the item will differ slightly from the photo, as each strand is custom-created to the desired length. Since the beads are fragile, I do my best to ensure that the packaging protects them appropriately. Do have a look at the other items in my shop to take advantage of combined shipping costs.
