SATURN

This beaded bracelet is composed of dark blue aventurine, hand painted decorative bead “Saturn” and sterling silver spacer.  The aventurine is a variety of quartz containing small mica flakes, that gives it a sparkling effect so similar to the twinkling of stars in the night sky. Saturn is probably best known for the system of planetary rings, whose beauty is not just about their color, but also their brightness, that makes this planet visually unique. In ancient Roman mythology, the god Saturn, from which the planet takes its name, was able to expiate his guilt and make it useful in terms of personal growth. In astrology Saturn is associated with the moral and intellectual growth.
