Updated Vintage Green Quartz

The diversity of my Celtic Pattern Design is exhibited  once again when another customer requested I “do something” with a green quartz stone that has been in her family for a number of generations. At first she believed it was an Aquamarine but I pointed out the color difference between the Beryl Aquamarine and Green Quartz. As a footnote, an Aquamarine of this size would be worth a considerable amount of money today.


Once again you may see the effect this design has on the stone turning it from an almost transparent amorphous crystal into a beautiful piece of jewelry accentuating the stone’s pale color and facets in a intricately detailed frame.  The pendant is once again beautifully finished with a grilled back that protects, allows light into the stone as well as giving the entire piece and overall “luxury” finish. And of course I have used a “Round Box” .925 Chain to hang the piece from. Notice the extra large chain bale I used. This will fit an extra thick chain or silk cord and should be at least 27” or more in length.
