The Calm

The Calm is a bracelet made of matte sodalite and white howlite.

Calm is what sailors call windless weather, which is quite rare in wide open spaces. During the era of sailing ships, calm weather meant the ship would stop moving, which was more a curse than a blessing. Calm also refers to the state of nature in the so-called “eye of the storm,” the center of a cyclone, where no other winds penetrate and absolute peace reigns. The bracelet made of sodalite and howlite is also about focus, peace, and inner silence.

Sodalite is a stone of a beautiful deep blue color, marked with white and black streaks. It was known and highly valued in Ancient Egypt and the Inca Empire. It is believed that sodalite sharpens intuition and aids in moments of insight. It is often used in meditation practices.

White howlite is a stone of absolute tranquility. It is believed to tame any element—both internal and external—pushing emotions aside and promoting rational thinking. People say that white howlite opens the mind to new knowledge and helps explore the unknown.
