Cali - crystal wand necklace. This wand is made with a beautiful natural Quartz crystal. I have paired it with mixed gemstones and a few glass beads. Some of the beads are Garnet, Lepidolite, Apatite, Pearl, and Carnelian.
The metals are a mix of copper and silver. Mostly the look of silver overall but a small smattering of copper. I like the rustic feel that it gives to the wands.
It is on a stainless steel chain that measures 30" in length. If you would prefer a shorter length, please let me know in the comments.
I use the same technique that is used in doing stained glass. The jewelry is made from a copper base with jewelry grade, silver solder layered over it. The soldering is done directly onto the stone by hand.
I like to put a lot of texture into the metalwork. I have darkened it with patina and polished the finished pendant.
Some of the lore regarding Quartz - it is a very powerful healer and energy amplifier. It is able to absorb , store, release, and regulate energy. It is the stone of clarity. It dispels negative thoughts and clears away negativity. It is used to purify the mind and body. It aids with concentration and unlocks memory. It is believed to the powerfully protective. It increases creativity and brings inspiration.
