Labradorite Galaxy Bloom – Argentium Silver Spiral Pendant Handcrafted By Rox
As soon as I saw this piece of Labradorite, I knew I had to have it! It’s unusual colouring includes a lovely ‘bloom’ of violets and purples that burst from the centre of the piece. It takes millions of years for these pieces to form, and as such, it’s important to me that my designs allow the Labradorescence to shine, rather than be covered by overdesigning! I’m obsessed with spirals, and I hope you’ll be able to admire this piece just as much as I do.

Self-care might mean gaining pleasure from gifting, and sometimes the only way to get the truly ideal present is to choose it yourself.
Pendant
Pendants are among the earliest forms of jewellery and artistic expression, the first evidence of a decorated piece is over 41,500 years old. They could be made from animal teeth, shells, and stones, used as amulets, talismans and symbols of power. Across cultures, pendants carry deep symbolic meaning; from Ancient Egyptian scarabs to modern designs, they remain a timeless symbol of resilience and our heritage. A pendant is more than just jewellery, it carries a story and the love of the wearer, suspended close to the heart.
Spiral
The spiral is everywhere once you start looking. Galaxies spiral. Seashells spiral. The very DNA that makes you who you are spirals. It’s nature’s way of saying ‘this is how things grow, this is how things move, this is how things are.’
A simple spiral design connects you to all of that. It’s not trying to be complicated — the spiral itself does all the work. My job is just to render it in metal and let its ancient, universal beauty speak for itself.
I love the spiral because it’s simultaneously the simplest and most profound shape in existence. One continuous line, curving in on itself or out from itself, and yet it contains the mathematics of growth, the pattern of evolution, the very structure of life.
There’s a reason the spiral appears in art from every culture and every era. It’s primal, fundamental, instantly recognisable as something meaningful even if we can’t quite articulate why. Our ancestors carved it into stones and painted it on cave walls because they sensed what science would later confirm — the spiral is woven into the fabric of reality.
My Spiral designs honour that universality. These aren’t complicated pieces; they don’t need to be. The spiral carries its own weight of meaning, its own accumulated significance from millennia of human recognition.
Wearing a spiral is connecting yourself to the largest and smallest structures in existence. Galaxies spiral. Hurricanes spiral. The cochlea in your inner ear spirals. It’s a reminder that you’re part of something vast, something patterned, something beautiful.
The spiral might be the first abstract symbol humans ever created. Before we had words for growth or change or evolution, we had this shape that somehow captured all of them. It’s been sacred longer than any religion, meaningful longer than any philosophy.
I keep coming back to spiral designs because they never stop revealing new things. The same form that represents cosmic expansion also represents inner journey. The same curve that echoes seashells also echoes galaxies. It’s infinitely scalable, infinitely meaningful.
People who choose simple spiral pieces often understand something important — that the profound doesn’t need to be complicated. Sometimes the deepest meaning comes in the most elegant form. The spiral says everything it needs to say with one continuous, beautiful line.
Argentium Silver
You may not have heard of Argentium Silver, but I use it in all of my silver designs. Invented in the late 20th century, it was developed to resist tarnish and hold a radiant shine. It is hypoallergenic, made from 100% recycled silver, and offers a higher purity than standard Sterling Silver — combining beauty, comfort, and responsibility in one material.
Argentium Silver is a modern silver alloy named after the Latin word for silver, Argentum. Created in the 1990s, it replaces some of the copper found in traditional silver with germanium, making it naturally tarnish-resistant and hypoallergenic. I choose it for its bright finish, durability, and sustainable origins.
I love working with Argentium Silver because it responds beautifully to heat, allowing me to create effects that aren’t possible with traditional silver. It’s a very modern creation – tarnish-resistant, hypoallergenic, and made from recycled silver — a material that supports both creative freedom and long-lasting wear.
There are many reasons I use Argentium Silver — its high quality, resistance to tarnish, and hypoallergenic nature among them. Invented just a few decades ago and crafted from recycled silver, it offers a brighter finish and greater purity than standard Sterling Silver, making it both a pleasure to work with and to wear.

Labradorite
When there are tens of thousands of stones that can be chosen for jewellery, it’s crucial to get it right. I only select pieces that call to me, and so Labradorite is given pride of place in this creation. Valued for its ability to bridge the physical and spiritual worlds, labradorite is a stone of change, guiding its wearer through transformation.
Bezel
In jewellery, bezels are used to cradle and hold a stone within a design. Sometimes, the whole piece may act as a bezel, and in others, the bezel may be separate and removable. In this piece, the lustrous Argentium Silver bezel combines with the carefully selected Labradorite beautifully.
