This is a lovely Spirit Quartz specimen that I turned into a pendant using the long process of copper electroforming. It takes between 12-24 hours to make. I added a Rainbow Moonstone for added flair. The pendant hangs from a chocolate vegan suede cord.
Pendant measures 2 3/8 inches tall including the loop, and approx. 3/4 inch wide at the widest part.
Cord measures approx. 29 inches long.
"Most Spirit Quartz is Amethyst of greater or lesser quality, but some Citrine and whitish Quartz have also been mined. Spirit Quartz is found only in South Africa. Its name is derived from a similarity of the purple Amethyst color to that of a popular (in South Africa) window cleaning solution named Spirit. This presents a laughable irony to the metaphysical users of these stones. They are also known in some circles as cactus quartz or porcupine quartz." Excerpt from the Book of Stones.
