handmade copper-wrapped fossilized ammonite pendant

This incredible, elaborate pendant is a one-of-a-kind opalized ammonite fossil hand-wrapped with copper wire and beads.

Ammonites are the fossilized remains of ancient sea creatures called ammonoids, which have been extinct for 65 million years. Abundant and found on every continent, ammonites are related to the nautilus and the cuttlefish, squid-like mollusks. Because of their spiral shells, they are a symbol of change and positive motion. They can act like an energy filter, drawing in heavy, negative energy and transmuting it to something positive. Having spent millions of years buried in the earth, they are deeply earth-connected, full of healing earth energy that activates the root chakra, grounding and stabilizing your energy.

Copper cleanses negative energy, supports intuition, and helps with emotional balance.
