Sea green quartz square pendant
Sea green quartz square pendant
A beautiful 5mm faceted sea green quartz is the central focus of this textured square 100% recycled sterling silver pendant. Handcrafted using traditional silversmithing skills and tools, the sterling silver has been given a crater texture and holds the beautiful ocean-like gem in its grasp. Four jump rings loop through a rectangular hand cut opening to hold a 16” sterling silver chain.

All of my jewellery pieces are handcrafted by me using traditional silversmith skills at my little home studio, and are generally one of a kind in their design. I sometimes use findings which are not handmade, such as the chains I use for pendants but otherwise my jewellery is fashioned just from sheet silver and silver wire and old fashioned basic techniques and tools. I use ethically sourced gemstones where possible and all of the beachcombed items I use such as sea glass, sea pottery and sea plastic are genuine, mostly found by me (unless kindly donated) and smoothed naturally by the sea predominantly off the coast of England. My pieces are hallmarked when necessary as a precious metal by the London Assay Office with my maker’s mark – I use mostly sterling silver for my handmade jewellery and these are hallmarked when they are above the weight of 7.78g.
