【Qu Shui Chen Handcraft】Malachite Azurite Pure Silver Pendant

Malachite Azurite Sterling Silver Pendant. Materials: 925 Sterling Silver (partially 999 Sterling Silver). Overall size: 38x30mm. This design, featuring curved lines and silver bead accents, is part of a series (two previous pieces with similar design elements have already found new homes). When I first acquired this malachite azurite rough stone, I knew it had to be designed in this direction. The upper portion retains the characteristic colors and patterns of malachite, while the lower azurite portion, with its lace-like texture, creates a landscape unique to this stone. ❖ Product photos are mostly taken in natural daylight. Dimensions are listed as Length x Width (x Thickness). ❖ Pendant chains are not included with the jewelry pieces. We recommend pairing these with commercially available silver chains or with stainless steel chains for pieces treated with a darkened silver finish, as the color tones complement each other well. ❖ During the wire weaving process, slight pinching or cutting marks may occur due to hand pressure. These generally do not affect the wearing experience. ❖ "Artistic Copper Wire" refers to craft wire with a copper core, plating, and protective layer. "Red Copper Wire" and "Brass Wire" refer to bare copper wire (without plating). Sterling silver will be specified as 925 or 999 silver. ❖ Natural stones may inherently feature characteristics such as inclusions, patterns, or minor chips. Small imperfections may also exist from drilling or polishing. ❖ Shipping defaults to simple packaging, including protective cushioning materials and a shipping bag, along with a sealed pouch for convenient storage. 【Artistic Copper Wire Woven Jewelry】 ❖ Artistic copper wire is craft wire with a copper core, plating, and protective layer. With proper use and care, the color can remain largely unchanged for several years. ❖ Due to the plating and protective layer on the surface, please avoid using silver polishing cloths or toothpaste for cleaning, as this will rapidly degrade the plating. ❖ After wearing, gently wipe away any moisture with a soft cloth (especially sweat) and store in the provided sealed pouch. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as sports, or while visiting hot springs, as this can accelerate wire degradation and potentially damage the natural stones. 【Unplated Copper/Silver Wire Woven Jewelry / Pure Silver Metalwork Jewelry】 ❖ Red copper, brass, and silver wires are unplated. Natural oxidation is a normal phenomenon (they will gradually turn into antique bronze or antique silver hues). The color change and rate of oxidation will vary depending on wear and individual body chemistry, which is part of the character of bare wire jewelry. In terms of oxidation speed, red copper tends to oxidize faster (potentially turning antique red-bronze within days to weeks), while brass and silver oxidize more slowly. ❖ Wire treated with a darkening (antiquing) process will have a more stable color tone compared to untreated wire. However, polished areas will still naturally oxidize over time. ❖ If you wish to clean oxidized areas, you can typically use a silver polishing cloth or gently scrub with toothpaste, then dry with a soft cloth or a cool hair dryer. ❖ 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 sports, or while visiting hot springs, as this can accelerate wire oxidation and potentially damage the natural stones. ❖ Pieces made with unplated wire can be sent back for re-polishing (only return shipping fees will apply). 【Natural Stones】 ❖ Natural gemstones may inherently have inclusions, patterns, minor chips, or black spots. Small imperfections may also be present from drilling or polishing during processing. ❖ Most natural stones used in these pieces are semi-precious gemstones. Some stone types may have lower hardness (this will be specifically noted). Please try to avoid contact with abrasive polishing agents like silver polishing cloths or toothpaste when cleaning the metal components of your jewelry. ❖ Please avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as sports, or while visiting hot springs, as this may damage the natural stones.
