N°12 Mother's Day 2025 Special Set

Jewellery That Feels Like a Night Dive

For me, this set brings up the sensation of a night dive on a healthy reef slope when your torch catches the impossible purples and deep reds of soft coral polyps. That quiet awe. That rush of “how does this even exist here?” 

The central Crazy Lace Agate pendant feels like a stylised coral colony—alive with movement. It has that exact visual complexity you get when you stop mid-drift and study the wave-like pulsing of a Xenia coral or a mass of gorgonian arms fully extended into the current. The pattern pulls you in, just like staring at a surface that looks chaotic at first—until you realise it’s perfectly organised. Crazy Lace Agate is young in comparison to many other minerals on Earth (about 65-90 million years old) and is ily found in Chihuahua, in Northern Mexico.

The smaller hessonite and rhodolite garnet beads spaced throughout bring a warmth that reminds me of eyeshine—those tiny pinpricks of red reflecting off shrimp, cardinalfish, and crabs tucked into rock crevices. The gold accents throughout the necklace are a nod to bioluminescent flashes—those moments when everything goes still and suddenly lights up without warning.

As for the earrings, you have 3 pairs to choose from, depending on your mood:

• The large crescent-shaped pair mimic the sweep of a coral fan, with the magenta crazy lace agate beads at their centre bringing a pulse of energy, complemented by tiny faceted hessonite beads (4.9cm long).
  The long, slender earrings on the left? They’re the flick of a shrimp tail, or the silhouette of a crinoid arm in your peripheral vision. They’re subtle, but layered—worn by someone who doesn’t need their jewellery to announce itself loudly, but who notices when something moves differently in the corner of a reef scene.
• The single Crazy Lace Agate round drop in the centre top is almost like a breadcrumb—just enough to echo the mood of the set, without needing the full narrative.

Like all our pieces, this set is handcrafted with love and care in our studio in Lennox Head:

• Crazy Lace Agate from Mexico
• Hessonite and Rhodolite Garnet from India
• Agates from Brazil
  
• Necklaces: short, can be varied via the extender chain or CONNECTED to create one mid-to long necklace!

The Set will be beautifully gift-wrapped and ready as an exceptional gift for yourself or an unexpected gift for someone special.

If you are a woman who gets her energy from the warm end of the colour spectrum, this Hessonite, Garnet and flamboyant Crazy Lace Agate set might be for you!
