It is with great sadness that I can no longer send to Northern Ireland due to excessive costs involved with new restrictions.

Amazonite is a blue-green variety of microcline, part of the feldspar group of minerals.
It was prized by the ancient Egyptians, who placed jewellery and carved ornaments made of Amazonite in the tombs of the dead, and was used to inlay the golden mask of Tutankhamun.
It is regarded as a stone of hope, balancing emotions and soothing stress, and is believed to enhance creativity and intuition.

I like the subtle understatement of larvikite, how it seems at first glance to be a mottled stone of paler and darker grey until light reveals hints of a silvery sheen and flash of blue.
It is named after the region of Larvik in Norway, and was named Norway.

Howlite, also known as Magnesite, is a chalky white borate mineral with dark grey veining.
It has a porous texture which takes dye very well, and is often dyed in turquoise shades, as the veining resembles that of natural Turquoise.
These have been dyed a pretty, pale turquoise shade which goes beautifully with the Larvikite.
