Coming out of the archives, the original version of the Belonging to the Darkness Ring represents a kind of "engagement" ring. I was certainly thinking of Lady Persephone of myth, belonging to Hades, Lord of the Underworld/afterlife.  For me personally, it represents a way of showing a commitment, a belonging to something or someone, an idea or a time or even an emotion, perhaps even if these are things that we are looking to let go of but still want represented somehow in our lives.

This ring is comprised of an antique setting manipulated with my beloved sparrow claws grasping each side, set with labradorite. Cast in sterling silver, each ring is hand oxidized to achieve our shade of stormy gray and then highlighted to reveal the bright luminous silver beneath.

Details:

-Sits 8mm off of the finger

-25mm at it’s widest

-Solid sterling silver

-11mm fine cut labradorite 

Labradorite is known for its healing properties, in particular for its ability to relieve anxiety & melancholy. It is also said to be used to dispel negativity & fear, acting as a kind of psychic armor to protect against more troubling & turbulent emotions. As a 'sister' to moonstone, Labradorite is often associated with the more "darker" aspects of the Goddess, in her Crone form, full of the experience & wisdom of life and death, associated with the darker moon: waning through new moon phases.

It is also a stone of transformation, and is said to help those with intuitive gifts to awaken and realize their full potential as well as helping enhance creative talents. It also ranks as one of the most protective stones, shielding its wearer from negativity. Much like its 'sister' Moonstone, Labradorite has been used and worn in many cultures and tribes for both its incredible natural beauty, and for its potent magical properties.

As they are entirely natural, earth made stones, color and clarity will vary from stone to stone.  Labradorite has natural lines and inclusions and varies in shades of green (teal, swamp green, olive green) to shades of (light grey to dark) blue.
