【Qu Shui Chen Handmade】Green Dragon Crystal Wire Wrapped Pendant

Green Dragon Crystal Pendant. Wire is antiqued copper. Overall dimensions (L x W) are 36 x 23mm. I've always felt that Green Dragon Crystal is a gemstone with a distinct personality, each with its own unique color and texture. This particular Green Dragon Crystal features delicate, scale-like silvery striations that are especially striking under light, and it's fortunate that the photographs managed to capture this effect. It's paired with vintage copper wire, which I've always felt complements Green Dragon Crystal beautifully, providing a sturdy frame for this soft, deep green hue. When creating these curved frames myself, I rarely plan the exact curve beforehand. More often than not, I let intuition and inspiration guide the wirework. Looking back, I often find myself studying how I achieved the lines in the first place! 😆 However, this also means that even I find it difficult to perfectly replicate the same combination of curves. Thus, my encounter and connection with this loose stone, mediated by the metal wire, can be considered a unique, once-in-a-lifetime moment. ❖ Product photos are mostly taken in natural daylight. Dimensions are Length x Width (x Thickness). ❖ Wire-wrapped jewelry typically does not include a chain. In addition to commercially available silver chains, we also recommend pairing antiqued sterling silver pieces with stainless steel chains for a harmonious color tone. ❖ Minor nicks or cuts may occur on the wire during the wire-wrapping process due to handling pressure, but these generally do not affect the overall appearance when worn. ❖ "Artistic Copper Wire" refers to craft wire with a copper core, plating, and protective coating. "Raw Copper Wire" or "Brass Wire" indicates bare copper wire without plating. Silver wire will be specified as 925 or 999 silver. ❖ Natural stones may inherently have characteristics such as inclusions, patterns, or minor chips. Small imperfections may also be present from drilling or polishing. ❖ Shipping defaults to simple packaging, including clean protective materials and a shipping bag. A sealed bag will also be provided for storage. 【Artistic Copper Wire Wrapped Jewelry】 ❖ Artistic copper wire is craft wire with a copper core, plating, and protective coating. With normal use and care, the color can remain largely unchanged for several years. ❖ Due to the plating and protective layer, please avoid using silver polishing cloths or toothpaste for cleaning, as this will rapidly wear away the plating. ❖ After wearing, gently wipe away any moisture (especially sweat) with a soft cloth and store in the provided sealed bag. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, or while bathing in hot springs. This can accelerate wire wear and potentially damage the natural stone. 【Unplated Copper/Silver Wire Wrapped Jewelry / Metalwork Sterling Silver Jewelry】 ❖ Raw copper wire, brass wire, and silver wire are unplated. Natural oxidation is normal and will gradually turn the pieces into a vintage bronze or silver hue. The color and rate of oxidation will vary depending on wear and individual body chemistry, which is part of the unique character of unplated wire jewelry. In my experience, raw copper wire oxidizes faster (turning antique copper in days to weeks), while brass and silver oxidize more slowly. ❖ Antiqued (oxidized) wire has a more stable color tone compared to untreated wire, but polished areas will still naturally oxidize over time. ❖ If you wish to clean oxidized areas, you can generally use a silver polishing cloth or gently brush with toothpaste, then dry or use a hairdryer on a cool setting. ❖ After wearing, wipe away any moisture with a soft cloth and store in the provided sealed bag. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, or while bathing in hot springs. This can accelerate wire oxidation and potentially damage the natural stone. ❖ Pieces made with unplated wire can be sent back for re-polishing at any time (only return shipping fees will apply). 【Natural Stones】 ❖ Natural gemstones may have inclusions, patterns, chips, or black spots. Small imperfections may also be present from drilling or polishing during the crafting process. ❖ The natural stones used in our pieces are mostly semi-precious. Some types of stones may have lower hardness (this will be specifically noted), so please try to avoid contact with abrasive polishing items like silver cloths or toothpaste when cleaning the metal parts of your jewelry. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, or while bathing in hot springs, as this may damage the natural stone.
