Pendant with cut Strawberry Quartz.
3 x 1 cm
Strawberry quartz is a delicate and visually captivating mineral, whose pinkish-red shades are created by inclusions of iron oxides, most often hematite or lepidocrocite. It belongs to the quartz family, one of the most widespread mineral groups on Earth, and is characterized by a translucent structure with tiny shimmering points resembling strawberry seeds. This stone is traditionally associated with the energy of the heart, love and joy of life, but unlike the more pronounced rose quartz, it has a softer and more playful effect. On an esoteric level, it promotes gratitude, helps to tune the mind to a positive perception of reality and strengthens the ability to see beauty in ordinary things. It is often sought after as a stone that harmonizes emotions without dramatic fluctuations and brings calm, balanced energy. Strawberry quartz can be a good guide when working on self-love, as it supports self-acceptance without pressure to be perfect.
The construction of the jewelry is handmade from surgical steel and the connecting material is an alloy of tin and silver. The jewelry is then treated similarly to silver - we polish it once in a while. The more the jewelry is worn, the better, it polishes itself on clothes, the wearer's skin, etc. The metal is stable and does not contain nickel or heavy metals. The jewelry can be worn constantly and in water, but it is good to dry it and treat it more often afterwards. The jewelry is hung on a braided, cotton cord and secured with an enlargement knot.
