Protection & Discernment Talisman
At first glance, Understream appears almost entirely black. Then the light shifts—and a metallic river reveals itself.
A natural seam of pyrite travels across the polished shungite, branching and pooling like a hidden waterway viewed from above. I framed the stone in bright raw copper, building a structured woven border around its broad oval form. Three tiny faceted fluorite beads sit at the crown, bringing a quiet flicker of translucent light to the dark stone and warm metal.
The reverse is finished with radiating copper lines that secure the shungite without concealing it. The result is substantial without feeling fussy, with a strong silhouette and distinctly unisex character.
This is an unusually tactile piece. The polished surface, comfortable weight and raised pyrite markings practically invite a thumb to wander across them. It feels a little like a palm stone that decided it wanted to travel.
Shungite is traditionally associated with grounding, energetic boundaries and protection. Fluorite carries symbolism of focus, discernment and orderly thought, while pyrite is linked with confidence, determination and recognizing value where others might overlook it. Together, they suggest steady footing with a clear mind—the ability to follow your own current without being swept away by everyone else’s.
Understream measures approximately 2.5 inches long by 1.75 inches wide (6.4 × 4.4 cm).
A river never follows precisely the same path twice. Neither did this piece.
Understream was made once and will belong to one keeper alone.
The stone carried the river. I built the banks.

Shungite is traditionally associated with grounding, protection and maintaining clear energetic boundaries. Its deep black colour and carbon-rich composition give it an ancient, steady presence.
Pyrite carries symbolism of confidence, persistence and recognizing the resources already within reach. Here, its natural path through the shungite resembles a hidden current of fire moving beneath dark earth.
Fluorite is associated with focus, discernment and bringing order to scattered thoughts. Its pale faceted beads provide a small but intentional point of light above the heavier grounding stones.
Together, they form a symbolic balance of protection, clear thought and forward movement.
MoM Notes
MoM Notes
The pyrite running through this shungite is a natural inclusion belonging entirely to the stone. Its branching path, variations in colour and irregular edges are geological features—not cracks or repairs.
The polished face is wonderfully tactile and may be used as a small touchstone for mindful moments. Rub away; I understand completely. Just take a little care around the tiny fluorite beads, as fluorite is softer and more delicate than many common jewellery stones.
The copper is raw, unpatinated and unsealed. It will naturally deepen in colour as it responds to air, moisture, touch and wear. Raw copper may occasionally leave a temporary green mark on the skin, particularly in warm or humid conditions.
If brighter copper is preferred, polish it gently with a jewellery cloth. Avoid soaking, chemical cleaners, abrasive products and hard impacts.

Why Copper?
Why Copper?
Copper is the great conductor and the metal of the magician. It amplifies the energies of the stones it accompanies. It is excellent for channelling and grounding and, thus, is considered the conduit between heaven and earth. Copper has long been used to aid tissue repair, blood support, and increase vitality. The larger gauges of copper used in my pieces have been reclaimed from castaway wiring, supporting my eco-friendly mission: "Jewelry with a re-purpose!".
