the three points on our emerald abacus tripod earrings represent the past, present, and future; the passage of time can also be marked by the breaths we take, and so we use these subtle beauties as a reminder to inhale the future, exhale the past, and energize ourselves with the present. to give this beauty something deeper, we incorporated emeralds, which are said to be one of the stones most connected to our earth. they encourage growth, reflection, peace, and patience—the pillars of nature and life. many emeralds promote healing and fertility, while their verdant tones symbolize an unwavering bond. to hold an emerald is to gain a connection with Mother Earth herself.
