Smoky Quartz and Sterling Silver Pendant

Smoky Quartz and Sterling Silver Pendant

One of the lovely mums from school had inherited this gorgeous piece of smoky quartz, and asked if I would be able to make it into a pendant for her to give to her mum. The stone even came to me in a cute little vintage box!

I created the setting so that the stone would be protected, but the maximum amount of light would come through – I always aim to make the stone the star of the show!

One of my lovely regulars, Karen, reserved this stone from my collection, and when she was ready, asked me to create her a ring.

We worked on the design together, and I love Karen’s request for a wire border of silver around the stone.

A friend from circus training needed a gift for a girl about to have her bat mitzvah in the US. He wanted something that was age appropriate, timeless, and Australian without being tacky.

I designed this pendant for him, the gum leaf and the opal both being very Australian!
