Imagine a stone that not only shines, but also calms. That does not aim to stand out, but to soften your day to day. This stone exists. It is chalcedony, and its dim light seems to be born from a place where everything moves more slowly, with more softness and depth.
We present the new pendant from the HeptaBloom collection with chalcedony. A gem to express yourself clearly and listen with your heart. Let's be there!
Chalcedony: communication, harmony and trust
Its color can range from sky blue to grayish blue, with a soft, almost ethereal texture. It is a stone that has been associated for centuries with communication, inner peace and self-confidence.
In ancient times, orators and wise men wore it to speak with clarity and serenity. It was believed to calm emotions and help convey ideas with empathy and elegance.
A gem that invites dialogue and calm
Chalcedony is formed when silica is deposited in cavities of volcanic rocks, creating soft, translucent bands. It is a stone that speaks of slow processes, of the beauty that is born when things are said with time and affection.
That is why it is considered an ally for personal relationships, to strengthen bonds and to connect with more honest and compassionate communication.
Legends and beliefs: the voice of wisdom
Chalcedony is rich in silica, an essential structural component in nature. It is the basis of many minerals, rocks and living cells. And it is present in connective tissue, bones, hair, skin... It contributes to giving them resistance and elasticity. It is also known for its ability to structure, cohesion and shape.
Who knows if it was for this reason, for this ability to provide structure, flexibility and fluidity, that the ancient Greeks linked it to the goddess Hera, protector of marriage and the just word. Marriage must be sustained by a solid but at the same time flexible foundation.
In the Middle Ages, chalcedony was used to promote dialogue and reconciliation, and was said to calm arguments and dispel sadness.
Also in many cultures, it has been a protective stone for those who work with the voice, from teachers to artists, and even today it is considered a gem that helps find the right words and listen with presence.
The other gems of the Collection
The HeptaBloom collection invites you to choose with your heart. Each of its gems opens a different door for you: the determination of onyx, the rooted strength of jasper, the intuition of pink opal, the calm of nephrite, the wisdom of lapis lazuli… and the expressive softness of chalcedony, of course.
Jordi Rosich, gemologist and designer at Roosik&Co, has chosen each rough stone to cut into a heptagonal shape. The result: small pieces of jewelry that speak of you, who you are and how you want to feel.
Now, it's your turn.
Choose the stone that speaks to you. Let yourself be carried away by its color, its shape, its energy.
And if chalcedony has chosen you... maybe it's because you have something beautiful to say. Or to listen to.
