In Native American beliefs, coral is seen as a water spirit, or that it holds that essence, since it comes from the ocean. With that being said, wearing it during ceremonies or in everyday use widens the chance of your prayers being heard. It is also used in traditional ceremonies to help evoke the spirits and Creator to be of help, and even more so to bring rain.
The literal meaning of heishi is “shell” and specifically refers to pieces of shell which have been drilled and ground into beads and then strung into necklaces. More and more frequently, however, heishi (pronounced hee-shee) has come to refer to hand-made tiny beads made of any natural material.
All our jewelry comes in a nice box, however, gift boxes are available that come with a matching card and message.
