Stirrup
The design is based on riding stirrups. From Cassandra's classic collection.
Moonstone
Extremely fine alternating layers of albite and orthoclase feldspar cause a magical reflection of light within moonstone to give its blue to white 'moon-like' shimmer and translucency. The name for this 'adularescence' comes from the Adula mountain range where moonstones were first found in Switzerland. A moonstone placed under a pillow is said to bring beautiful dreams, especially to those born in June.
