Foz do Iguacu
The great cascades of water that gush over the rocks at the Foz do Iguacu waterfalls in Brazil create circular patterns as they fall thousands of feet below. The stripes of the gold in my Foz pendant was my way of creating that feeling of the falls. For my 35th anniversary, I made a new gold version set with a cabochon blue sapphire in the centre.
Sapphire
Sapphire's dazzling lustre ranges from deep velvet translucent depths to colourless transparency, in blue, pink, yellow, green, purple and colourless hues.
Originating in Sri Lanka, Australia and Myanmar, Cassandra often finds unusual colours and cuts on her travels, enraptured by rarer green sapphires in particular. Regarded as a healing corundum gemstone, with calming properties, it's no wonder sapphires appear in such captivating and mystical hues.
The birthstone for September; this protective gemstone is known to have create powers of serenity and purity, with each colour embodying its own unique sense of wisdom.
