Gold
Gold is a lustrous, precious metal that has been used for fine jewelry, coinage, and other arts, and even, in the form of a gold standard, as a monetary policy between nations. Gold is associated with perfect or divine principles, as well as wisdom of aging and fruition.
Macrame
Macrame is a form of textile-making using knotting rather than weaving or knitting. Originated by the ancient Babylonians, the technique has long been crafted by sailors, especially in elaborate or ornamental knotting forms, to decorate anything from knife handles to bottles to parts of ships.
Ruby
Ruby is considered one of the four precious stones, together with diamond, emerald and sapphire. Throughout history and across cultures rubies have been believed to have various positive effects and mystical properties, and are considered the stone of love, energy, passion, and power.
Ruby is the birthstone of July.
