ONE Dainty "Vera Cruz" Amethyst Point Necklace
This listing is for ONE Vera Cruz Amethyst crystal point necklace from the selection photographed.
Natural tiny, delicate lilac Amethyst crystal point from Vera Cruz, Mexico is mostly clear with some white clouding near the base. Some inner inclusions and fractures may shimmer as rainbows when they catch the sunlight. Set in textured pure copper with a round bail on top. Hung from a pure copper cable chain (links are 4.1mm by 3.7mm) with a copper-plated brass lobster clasp. The copper is antiqued to a silvery gray patina with Liver of Sulfur, and hand-polished to bring out the highlights. This patina will continue to change over time.
Each crystal is hand-selected with intact points. Length varies from 7/8" to 1 1/4" from top of bail to tip of point (average length is 1"), and 1/4" wide.
Made with intention: to inspire clarity of mind and quiet inner peace. To aid as a focal point for mindfulness and assist in realizing connection to Source and Spirit.

ELECTRO MAGIC:
I create jewelry and curiosities by "growing" copper onto crystals and other organics using an alchemical hybrid process: Electroforming. In my cauldron of neon blue electrolyte solution, I brood over, coax, and observe my creations as they begin to take shape. The process takes twelve hours, up to three days, with each piece forming bumps, nodules, lines, and deep grooves along the way. Some of my pieces are darkened with a Liver of Sulfur solution and polished with oil; others are left shiny and bare. All of my pieces are left unsealed, which allows them to continue to age and oxidize, giving you a living, breathing adornment that is truly dynamic and ever-changing.
CARE FOR YOUR PIECE:
Please handle your handmade jewelry with care; avoid dropping it or inflicting heavy trauma or stress. While copper is sturdy enough for daily wear, it is a softer metal and can be misshapen under stress. Crystals and gemstones, especially in raw form, also need to be treated kindly. Avoid submersion in water and direct exposure to lotions, oils, perfumes, and harsh cleaners. These can permanently discolor some stones or tarnish the copper. To clean your jewelry, simply buff gently with a soft cloth to remove perspiration and oils. Some people with certain chemistry experience temporary discoloration of the skin when wearing copper jewelry, especially on the fingers and the back of the neck. This is the "Green Ghost" of oxidation and can be washed off the skin with soap and warm water, if you desire.
NATURAL STONES:
The crystals I use are hand-picked and inspected by me personally before I put them into jewelry. As they are natural treasures from the earth, some inclusions, fractures, pitting, mineral deposits, and other irregularities are very common. It is my belief that these imperfections add to the mystery and charm of these creations - just like us, they are flawed.
Flashes of light in stones such as Opal, Rainbow Obsidian, Rainbow Moonstone, Labradorite and others are often best observed from a certain angle or in certain light; however, I do work to orient my stones so that they will shine their brightest when worn.
