About this Product
A sparkly Herkimer Diamond (a type of quartz from Herkimer, NY) woven in copper. Herkimer diamonds symbolize clarity and spiritual energy. I learned this style of setting from a Youtube tutorial by Perfectly Twisted Jewelry. I enjoy this pattern, which comes out a little differently with each crystal. It's also reversible--wear whichever side you like better.
The pendant itself is about 2 inches (about 5 cm) long. The copper chain is adjustable from about 18 to 20 inches (45 to 50 cm).
The pendant has a non-tarnish coating to protect the finish. If you avoid getting it wet, the coating will last longer. If it wears off over time, you can use the polishing cloth I included in the box. If something happens to your pendant, please feel free to contact me via GoImagine or by sending an email to cobaltdragonflyart@gmail.com. If you return the item to me (at your cost) I will do my best to repair and return it to you at no additional cost to you.

Meet the Maker
I got in trouble for doodling mandalas at school, even though I didn’t know the word “mandala” at the time. I love to create art and jewelry, sometimes drawing on spiritual traditions such as the paganism of my ancestors in Lithuania.
I’ve never met a craft I didn’t like, but wire weaving jewelry is my favorite. I am fascinated by different stones, their colors, patterns, their shimmer or flash, and their symbolism. When I start working with a stone, I visualize and sketch the style of setting that feels right. Then I have fun figuring out how to connect all the elements. The actual process of weaving is both meditative and deeply satisfying.
It is always my hope that after a piece comes together, the wearer will feel some of the joy I felt in the creative process.
