DANCE WITH THE COSMOS
ONLY ONE AVAILABLE
Mary van der Aa is proud to present “Cosmos,” inspired from her legendary 2023 AGTA Spectrum Award Winning necklace, “Garanatus: From Rough to Cut.” “Garanatus” celebrates the remarkable beauty of crystals found deep within the Earth. These ethereal treasures, born from the very embrace of our planet, are said to have been created by the cosmos itself. Scientists and spiritual seekers alike recognize that the formation of crystals is a cosmic and celestial dance, where Earth's elements and cosmic energies intertwine to create these magnificent structures. The resulting jewelry pieces are not just accessories but veritable portals, connecting wearers with the energy and wisdom of the cosmos. It is a belief founded on the acknowledgment of the profound interconnectedness between our planet and the celestial entities that surround it. As we adorn ourselves with these celestial treasures, we remind ourselves of the seamless connection between our planet and the vast cosmos above. In each crystal, we find a tangible connection to the forces that shape our existence, encapsulating the essence of beauty, wonder, and cosmic harmony. Wearers who embrace these pieces invite the cosmic forces into their very being, a reflection of the harmony between the Earth and the outer universe.

“Mary has such an impeccable eye for color. Her pieces are empowering and always make me feel ready for anything. I am the talk of the town whenever I am out- and I can’t lie, I love the attention and adoration her pieces bring. I also love being unique in a sea of monotony.”
APATITE
Apatite is a naturally occurring mineral, and is quite an underrated beauty. It is scarcely known, but is a stone of intoxicating color that is highly prized by true collectors. Apatite comes in electric hues such as yellow and green, and a variety of other shades. One of the most prized shades is “neon blue”, rivaling that of another very rare and famous gemstone, Paraiba Tourmaline. Apatite is said to decrease hunger, and enhance unconditional love and insight. It is the gemstone for the zodiac sign Gemini, and has a hardness of 5.0. This gemstone requires special care and is not suited for everyday wear.
SPINEL
Spinel is a very underrated member of the gemstone family. It first appeared in historical records of fourteenth-century Spain, and has since been confused with many gems, including Ruby. As a matter of fact, the famous 14th century Black Prince’s Ruby in the British Imperial Crown is actually a red spinel, not a Ruby. Spinel crystals form so perfectly, that in Burma they are said to be “nat thwe” or “polished by the spirits.” Some of the most sought-after spinel was found in 2007 in Mahenge, Tanzania, and has an incredible hot pink glow. Spinel is a colorful, natural gem that has recently been inducted as the August birthstone, along with its predecessor, peridot. It is also the gem for the 22nd anniversary, and is believed to encourage great passion, devotion and longevity. Spinels have a hardness of 8.0, making them very durable for everyday wear with proper care. More about Spinel HERE
