Orpheus 9ct yellow gold bracelet set with eight facetted sky blue topaz. Inspired by the story of Orpheus and the Underworld. From Cassandra's Classic collection
Orpheus
The design for the Orpheus bracelet was inspired by the story of Orhpeus, descending into the underworld to rescue Eurydice. The eight transparent stones of the bracelet represent the water he dived into, and eight being a lucky number reminds the wearer to be patient - a quality that Orpheus needed to work on.
Blue Topaz
Topaz is an Aluminum fluoro- hyrdroxyl- silicate that occurs in large crystals mostly in Brazil. Its slightly turquoise blue hue, is similar to that of aquamarine. It is perhaps this colour that makes it the stone symbolising friendship and love, honest and fidelity. It is the birthstone for November.
