Handcrafted in solid 10k gold, this one-of-a-kind necklace holds a small natural staurolite cross pendant on a delicate 14k 1mm snake chain. Staurella takes its name from Stauros, the Greek word for "cross." It is a softer echo of our Stauros Necklace, carrying the same rare, naturally formed cruciform shape in a more intimate size.

Protection, grounding, calm
Known as the "Fairy Cross," staurolite forms naturally into the shape of a cross: a rare twin of its crystal structure said, in folklore, to be the tears of fairies. For centuries it has been carried as a talisman of protection, worn to ward off illness, misfortune, and ill will. Staurolite is also known as a grounding stone, believed to ease stress and anxiety while quietly connecting the wearer to the natural world.
