This is a "syenite rich in fluorescent sodalite" stone that I found on the shore of Lake Superior, cut and polished in my home studio. It is similar in composition to granite and originated on the north shores of Lake Superior, brought down with the glaciers. Under UV lights, it glows! In natural light, the stone is beautiful with colors of white, gray, and black.
This pendant features a sterling and fine silver and I added a patina to the silver setting to accentuate the setting and the stone.
I am including a small UV flashlight so that you can light up the pendant! This flashlight isn't large enough to comb the beach for your own, but you can certainly light up ones that you may find. The photo where it fluoresces orange is with my larger UV flashlight and the pink is with the flashlight that is included
This pendant comes with the 18" soft soft and supple sterling silver chain with a sterling silver lobster clasp that also has a patina to match the pendant.
I hand-applied a micro-crystalline wax to both the pendant and chain to inhibit tarnishing.
The pendant measures 5/8" x 1-1/4"
All purchases come in a gift box with ribbon ready for gift-giving or as a gift for yourself!
Included is a Sunshine Jewelry Polishing Cloth.
Artisan crafted jewelry is created by hand, therefore no two items are identical. Each of the jewelry pieces that you see in my shop do not look machine made--they were crafted only by me with my hands and tools in my home studio located in the woods of the Keweenaw Peninsula in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
