The necklace chain is a 2.5mm anchor chain necklace. It is made of copper, and is rose gold plated to preserve the finish. The chain can extend from 40cm to 50cm and has a ball clasp.

Jewellery pieces are created by a process called copper electroforming, which allows for the deposition of copper electrolytes over several hours in a copper/acid solution. This results in unique and unpredictable textures, as the entire process is organic.

Please be aware that the colour of copper darkens over time, and the item can be cleaned using a sachet of Copperbrite and a soft cloth. (Available here) Copper can potentially turn the skin green as it reacts with the chemicals in some skins. A coat of clear nail polish will prevent this.

About Druzy:

The sparkling Druzy quartz forms as a coating of minute quartz crystals on the exterior of another stone. The attraction of this stone, with its sugar-like appearance, lies in the dazzling effect created when it catches rays of sunlight. It is formed when silica-rich groundwater deposits minerals onto the surface of a rock. When the water evaporates, rapid cooling occurs, which causes the creation of tiny crystals. These clear crystals are thousands of years in the making and often form on top of previously deposited minerals as a secondary coating.

 Symbolism

Sometimes referred to as the ‘stone of stardust’, this multitude of tiny crystals emerging together symbolises harmony, unity, patience and peace. It also represents balance and emotional strength to embrace one’s shining qualities while avoiding negativity and self-doubt.

As the reflective surface of the stone reminds us of a mirror, Druzy is also believed to represent self-awareness, awareness of truth, and, ultimately, enlightenment.
