This gemstone wooden coaster has an outer rim of mango wood, with semi-precious stones inside and a round copper goddess motif, all set in durable polyester resin. The warmth of the wood, the colour of the stones and the shine of the copper come together into a refined, decorative piece.
The stones and the goddess
In this version the stones are: amethyst and lapis lazuli. The Goddess is the ancient image of a figure with open arms, an emblem of creative, protective and nurturing nature. The makers set the conductive copper motif alongside the stones in the spirit of orgonite; this is an esoteric tradition rather than a proven physical effect.
A versatile accent
The coaster is a lovely accent on a table or windowsill and can be used in several ways. Those who enjoy the tradition often rest a glass or bottle of water on it for a short while, or set their jewellery on it, as a symbolic, atmospheric gesture rather than for any medical purpose.
Material and make
The coaster is made of a mango-wood rim, natural semi-precious stones, copper and polyester resin, measuring around 10 centimetres across. Because the stones are natural, each piece has a unique shade.
Care
Wipe it clean with a soft, dry or barely damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and strong, prolonged sunlight so the beauty of the stones and wood lasts.
