Crinoid Fossil (Indian Bead) - Crinoids are marine animals belonging to the phylum Echinodermata and the class Crinoidea. They are an ancient fossil group that first appeared in the seas of the mid Cambrian, about 300 million years before dinosaurs. They flourished in the Palaeozoic and Mesozoic eras and some survive to the present day.  A spiritual stone, deeply connected to the earth, home and the events of one's past. A survival stone, one of strength and protection.
 
Fluorite symbolizes clarity, focus, and harmony, often called the "Genius Stone" for enhancing mental abilities, absorbing negativity, and promoting spiritual growth; its name comes from the Latin "fluere" (to flow) due to its use as a flux. It cleanses the aura, balances emotions, and helps with learning, intuition, and decision-making, with different colors offering specific benefits like heart healing (green) or psychic awareness (purple). 
Why Silver? Silver is the metal of emotions, of the psychic mind, and of loving as well as healing. It is used to bring patience and perseverance to the wearer. When silver is used with gemstones, the metal retains and amplifies the qualities emitted by the stones
