The sulphur quartz mineral pendant is made from a piece of natural mineral that has been fitted with a drilled bead hole. This means a narrow opening has already been drilled into the stone for hanging, so you don't need to take it to an expensive jeweller – within a few minutes you can thread it at home onto your favourite chain or leather cord.
The appearance of sulphur quartz
Sulphur quartz belongs to the quartz family of minerals, with a characteristic warm yellow-honey tone. The colour comes from tiny sulphur inclusions trapped inside the stone, so every piece has a unique pattern – you will not find two identical specimens. The surface is polished, smooth and cool to the touch.
Size and wearability
The size of the pendant has been designed so that when worn around the neck it is not heavy and does not pull the chain forward. You do not need to buy a separate metal mount for it, because the cord can be threaded directly through the drilled hole. It can also be worn as everyday jewellery over a shirt or sweater.
What you can thread it onto
The diameter of the drilled hole fits the most common jewellery cords. You can choose leather strips, waxed cotton thread, a thin silver chain or coloured textile cord – all of them can pass through the hole. If you intend it for a child, we recommend leather, because it is more comfortable to wear.
Cleaning and care
Wash the stone occasionally in lukewarm water with a soft brush, then dry it with a cotton cloth. You should avoid strong chemicals, dishwashing liquid and direct contact with perfume. Remove it during sports, bathing and swimming, because perspiration and chlorinated water may dull its shine.
Gift-giving
As a natural mineral piece, the pendant is a good choice for a birthday, name day or Christmas gift for someone who appreciates handcrafted jewellery. Since it arrives with a drilled hole, the recipient can choose their own preferred chain or cord at home – you don't have to guess their personal taste.
