Tourmalinated Quartz Pendant with Hinged Bail in Sterling Silver and 18k Gold

This striking pendant features a clean, high-clarity black tourmalinated quartz, laced with fine strands of black tourmaline rutile that appear suspended like threads of ink inside clear and smoky quartz. The subtle smoky tone inspired the addition of bold 18k gold prongs, highlighting the warm undertones and adding a touch of richness to this minimalist yet powerful design.

The pendant hangs from my newest hinged bail design, an exciting evolution of a detail I love working with, adding both a graceful silhouette and a touch of movement to the piece. Every element has been handcrafted with intention and care.

Metaphysical Properties:
Tourmalinated quartz is known as a stone of protection and grounding. It’s said to help shield against negative energy while also balancing polarities, bringing clarity to confusion and transforming inner conflict into harmony. The black tourmaline within is believed to deflect negativity, while the quartz amplifies energy, making this a powerful talisman for strength and alignment.
