Since it is believed that natural stones have magical properties, when choosing, you should heed the advice of esotericists.

When choosing, it is better to take into account the positive and negative qualities of a particular person. A properly selected stone will help in correcting bad qualities. It will have a beneficial effect on the character. For example, imbalance, selfishness and laziness will smooth the tiger's eye, and greed - rock crystal.

The color of the stone should be combined with the color type of a person. With a “winter” girl (white smooth skin, dark hair, bright eyes - blue, gray), smooth stones of cold colors will perfectly match: green, transparent, white, red, purple. “Spring” (light skin, fluffy thin hair with a warm shade, light eyes) will suit warm tones with soft colors: blue, light green, pinkish, golden.

A successful tandem with "summer" (skin of different shades, cold, blond hair, gray-blue eyes, gray-green) will be cold stones: blue, gray, black, scarlet, purple.

“Autumn” (skin is warm, golden, color is even, hair is red, eyes are bright, green, brown) will be in harmony with warm matte stones: brown, golden, bright yellow.

There is absolute scope for imagination here. The 21st century is a time of contrasts, a combination of everything with everything, so a necklace made of natural stones will suit any look.
