What is Mookaite?

Mookaite also known as Australian Jasper, is found in only one location in the world-
near Mooka Creek, in Western Australia. “Mooka” is an aboriginal word that means
“running waters.” It gets its beautiful range of colors of maroon, yellows, and purples
from the presence of minerals like manganese and iron that seep into the sediment.

Mookaite ’s metaphysical properties are believed to be beneficial for those embarking on changes by aiding in increased intuition and self-confidence, a sense of stability. It also can aid in anxiety by providing a sense of peace and calm. Overall, it supports taking risks without fear since it is a grounding and protective stone.

What is gold-fill?

Gold-filled materials are made by heat and pressure, bonding a 5%
layer of karat gold to a base metal. Gold-fill has an actual layer of karat gold that is
about 100 times thicker than plated gold which has about .05% gold. These pieces can
often last a lifetime without tarnishing.
