This beautiful pendant necklace is made using recycled copper and features a gorgeous soft pink Rose Quartz Moon Cabochon, crowned with an Opalite Cabochon. The Copper has been given a patina and then has been sealed using a jewellery grade sealant. It comes attached to a nickel-free, copper tone 52cm chain and the pendant is an additional 5cm of length.
Both Rose Quartz and Opalite is thought to be powerhouses of self-love, acceptance and confidence making this a lovely match of energies.

What is Copper Electroforming?
Electroforming is a process involving running an electrical current through an acid bath and depositing copper onto a conductive form. Each result is unique; no two pieces will ever be the same and it lends itself extremely well to beautiful organic designs. Life is not about perfection, but it is beautiful in its imperfections. I love working with copper because it is a highly sustainable metal, easily recycled and reclaimed and has a lovely warmth akin to rose gold. It is easy to keep clean and is just wonderfully versatile.
Care Tips - To keep the piece in its best condition, please avoid wearing in pools, the ocean, hot tubs and saunas. General upkeep can be maintained using a standard jewellery polishing cloth. Items coated with protectant may need to be recoated after time and this can be done with products like Ren Wax, clear nail varnish and Protectaclear. Uncoated items will patina naturally over time and can either be allowed to darken or you can bring back a bright tone by using something like lemon and salt to remove any unwanted tarnish. This would then need to be neutralised in something like a baking soda solution then dried well.
Allergy Information - As with all metals, please note everyone reacts differently based on your body chemistry and sensitivities. I have quite strong metal sensitivities, and I have not had any adverse reactions when test wearing these items. I test wear all stock regardless of if it's been hand made by myself or sourced from one of my suppliers.
