Atelier Lyreasta: Clear Quartz Sphere Wire Wrapped Pendant

Clear Quartz Sphere Wire Wrapped Pendant. The metal material is gold artistic copper wire. The overall dimensions (length x width) are 36x26mm. About one to two years ago, I made two rainbow quartz sphere pendants. From the moment they were completed until they were both taken, I consistently received many inquiries from customers and friends. I recall that the most common feedback during that period was that the 23mm sphere felt a bit large. Therefore, for this new version, I specifically sourced smaller quartz spheres for creation. Unlike the previous ones, these quartz spheres do not have large, all-encompassing internal fractures causing rainbows. Each sphere possesses its own unique character, with the rainbows and the reflections from the internal cracks intertwining to create their own singular scenery. However, it's important to note that the cause of rainbows in this type of quartz is due to internal fissures. Naturally, when selecting the main stone, the primary focus is ensuring that the cracks do not appear on the surface. Following that, apart from the fissures, the rest of the stone is clear. While these pendants meet the basic functional requirements for wear, they are not resistant to heavy drops or pressure. Of course, most natural crystals and minerals are generally not meant to be dropped or subjected to heavy pressure anyway 😆 In terms of design, this is the only piece among my recent creations that incorporates curved elements. Following the form of the main stone, I've crafted a wire-woven net that allows ample light penetration and can rotate 360 degrees, with curves used for decorative accents. The lines can be interpreted as the flow of light, or perhaps as the handle and long neck of a water bottle – it's all up to your imagination. The quartz spheres constantly transform under different backgrounds and light angles. The photos showcase the aspect I find most captivating, but I highly recommend rotating the pendant under light at every angle.

Pinkoi often crops the length of the actual video.

For styling, in addition to commercially available silver chains, pieces with oxidized sterling silver are also recommended to be paired with stainless steel chains for a more harmonious color tone. ❖ During the wire-wrapping process, slight marks from cutting or pinching the wire may occur due to handling. These generally do not affect the wearability of the piece. ❖ "Artistic copper wire" refers to craft-specific 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, mineral inclusions, or small chips. There may also be minor imperfections from drilling or polishing. ❖ Shipping is by default in simple packaging, with clean protective cushioning and a shipping bag. A resealable bag will also be included for convenient storage. [Artistic Copper Wire Wrapped Jewelry] ❖ Artistic copper wire is craft-specific wire consisting of a pure copper core, plating, and a protective layer. With normal use and care, the color can remain largely unchanged for several years. ❖ Because the surface has plating and a protective layer, please do not use silver polishing cloths or toothpaste for cleaning, as this will rapidly wear away the plating. ❖ After wearing, please wipe away any moisture, especially sweat, with a soft cloth and store it in the provided resealable bag. ❖ Please avoid wearing the jewelry during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as sports, or while bathing in hot springs. This can accelerate wire wear and potentially damage the natural stones. [Unplated Copper Wire/Silver Wire Wrapped Jewelry / Metalwork Sterling Silver Jewelry] ❖ Red copper wire, brass wire, and silver wire are all unplated materials. Natural oxidation is a normal phenomenon (they will gradually turn into a bronze/antique silver color). The color changes and oxidation speed will vary depending on wear and individual body chemistry, which is also part of the unique character of bare copper wire jewelry. In terms of oxidation speed, red copper wire oxidizes faster for most people (turning into an antique red copper color within days to weeks), while brass and silver oxidize more slowly. ❖ Wire that has undergone a patina (antiquing) treatment 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, please wipe away any moisture with a soft cloth and store it in the provided resealable bag. ❖ Please avoid wearing the jewelry during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as sports, or while bathing in 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 at any time (only return shipping fees will apply). [Natural Stones] ❖ Natural gemstones may have inclusions, patterns, mineral inclusions, or black spots. There may also be minor imperfections from drilling or polishing during processing. ❖ The natural stones used in the pieces are mostly semi-precious stones. Some stone types may have lower hardness (this will be specifically noted). Please try to avoid contact between polishing items like silver polishing cloths and toothpaste and the natural stone parts when caring for the metal components of the jewelry. ❖ Please avoid wearing the jewelry during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as sports, or while bathing in hot springs, as this may damage the natural stones.
