[Qu Shui Chen Handmade] Purple Charoite Sterling Silver Pendant

Purple Charoite Pendant, crafted with 999 and 925 sterling silver. Overall dimensions: 45x30mm (Length x Width). As the Year of the Dragon draws to a close, here's a Purple Charoite piece I've had for a while 😊 Beyond the intricate patterns revealing a distinct silver glow effect, the transparent textures add a richer dimension to its overall aesthetic. The original stone was a large, substantial oval cabochon, adorned with minimal embellishments. Yet, each swirling curve, reminiscent of flowing wind and clouds, echoes the stone's natural patterns. The piece thoughtfully utilizes the stone's depth, allowing its sides to present a unique landscape of their own. ❖ Product photos are mostly taken in natural daylight. Dimensions are listed as Length x Width (x Thickness). The full version of the short videos often trimmed on Pinkoi can be found by searching the brand name on IG. ❖ Chains are not included with the metalwork silver jewelry pieces by default. For pairing, besides commercially available silver chains, pieces with oxidized sterling silver are also recommended to be matched with stainless steel chains for better color harmony. ❖ Minor nicks or cut marks on the wire may occur during the metalworking process due to hand pressure, but these generally do not affect wearability. ❖ "Artistic copper wire" indicates specialty craft wire with a copper core, plating, and protective layer. "Red copper wire" and "Brass wire" refer to 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 mineral flaws. Minor imperfections during drilling or polishing are also possible. ❖ The default packaging is simple, including protective cushioning materials and a mailing bag, along with a sealed pouch for storage. 【Artistic Copper Wire Woven Jewelry】 ❖ Artistic copper wire is a specialized craft wire consisting of a copper core, plating, and protective layer. With normal use and care, its color can remain largely unchanged for several years. ❖ Due to the plated and protective layer on the surface, please avoid using silver polishing cloths and toothpaste for cleaning, as this will rapidly wear down the plating. ❖ After wearing, gently wipe away any moisture (especially sweat) with a soft cloth and store in the provided sealed pouch. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, and when visiting hot springs. This can accelerate wire wear and potentially damage the natural stones. 【Unplated Copper Wire / Silver Wire Woven Jewelry / Metalwork Sterling Silver Jewelry】 ❖ Red copper wire, brass wire, and silver wire are unplated materials. Natural oxidation is normal and will gradually transform them into a antique bronze/antique silver color. The color changes and oxidation speed will vary depending on wear and individual body chemistry, which is part of the unique character of bare copper wire jewelry. Red copper wire tends to oxidize faster (potentially turning antique red-brown within days to weeks), while brass and silver oxidize more slowly. ❖ Wire that has undergone a vulcanization (antiquing) process will have 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 scrub 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 pouch. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, and when visiting hot springs. This can accelerate wire oxidation and potentially damage the natural stones. ❖ Pieces made with unplated wire can be sent back for re-polishing later (only return shipping fees will apply). 【Natural Stones】 ❖ Natural minerals may inherently have inclusions, patterns, mineral flaws, or dark spots. Minor imperfections during drilling or polishing are also possible. ❖ The natural stones used in the pieces are mostly semi-precious. Some stone types may have lower hardness (this will be specifically noted). Please try to avoid contact between the natural stone areas and items like silver polishing cloths or toothpaste, which have abrasive polishing properties, when caring for the metal components of the jewelry. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, and when visiting hot springs, as this may damage the natural stones.
