Sometimes a small object changes the mood of a whole room. This crescent-moon suncatcher is exactly that: as light passes through the beads and glass charms, it scatters soft, dancing sparkles across the wall.
What is it?
A suncatcher is a hanging ornament for a window that catches and reflects incoming light. This piece is held by an intricately shaped wire frame, set with colourfully sparkling beads, a glass heart, drop-shaped charms and natural amethyst accents. The light elements sway gently and, in sunshine, draw a small play of light across their surroundings.
The crescent moon and the amethyst
The crescent moon is a much-loved symbol of change, cycles and renewal. Amethyst is the violet variety of quartz; tradition knows it as a stone of calm and clarity. Here it appears not as a large crystal but as fine, natural amethyst accents that complete the piece's palette – and the shade of each is a little unique.
Where to hang it
It comes into its own in a sunlit window where the light can shine through it. It looks lovely in a living room, a bedroom, a reading nook or a spiritual space. In the Feng Shui tradition, crystal suncatchers are believed to support the flow of positive energy (Chi) through a space – a belief that belongs to the object's atmosphere, while the play of light is a pleasure in itself.
As a gift
A charming yet eye-catching gift: light, decorative and suited to almost any home. A fine choice for a housewarming, a birthday, or simply as a thoughtful surprise.
Good to know
This is a hand-assembled piece containing natural mineral, so the shade of the amethyst and the arrangement of the elements may vary slightly from one item to another. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth.
