This bracelet features 8 mm Black Lava and a hollow silver accent bead. It is light on the wrist and a perfect companion piece for stacking with many combinations! Lava is a grounding stone that strengthens one's connection to Mother Earth. It gives us strength and courage, allowing us stability through times of change. It provides guidance and understanding in situations where we may need to "bounce back". A calming stone, it is very useful in dissipating anger. Often, the darker a stone is, the more powerful is it's energy.
