163 DS ARTIST WATERCOLOUR Amazonite Genuine

Description

Daniel Smith has acquired a unique supply of the precious mineral Amazonite from Brazil. It’s a strong pure colour that is completely transparent, non-staining and lifts easily for mazimum versatility. Natural Amazonite Genuine provides all the magic of the hills and forests of Brazil. This lovely teal shade of feldspar microcline, a precious mineral, was named for the Amazon River and was used in ancient times as war paint by fierce female warriors.

In addition, legends state that when you wear a piece of Amazonite you will harmonize your soul and be attuned to the spiritual dimension. Small carvings of Amazonite were tucked into a baby’s bunting to soothe and pacify. A shared piece of this lovely teal mineral was believed to enhance and further unite the union of soul mates.
