Shimmer is the first thing people notice. Each of these pendants is a slab of lepidolite with shiny mica and muscovite, given 24k gold electroplated accents and hung on a gold plated sterling silver chain.
The mica gives a bright shine, while the lepidolite and muscovite bring purple and golden hues, so the pendant shifts as it catches light. Pendant 1 is the larger, bolder choice at about 3 by 2.375 inches and 65 grams, and pendant 2 is lighter and slimmer at about 2.5 by 2.25 inches and 27 grams, which suits all day wear. Both hang on an 18 inch chain, a length that sits near the collarbone and works over a crew neck or a V neck. The gold is electroplated, not solid gold, and the chain is gold plated sterling silver. It makes a thoughtful gift for someone who loves lilac and gold together. You choose the exact piece from the photos.
Each numbered option is pictured on its own, so the piece you see is the piece you receive. Pendant 1 is about 3 by 2.375 by 0.25 inches and weighs 65 grams; pendant 2 is about 2.5 by 2.25 by 0.125 inches and weighs 27 grams.
About Lepidolite, Mica and Muscovite
Micas are sheet silicate minerals that split into thin, flexible sheets with a pearly to metallic luster. Lepidolite is a lithium bearing mica, lilac to pink from trace manganese, and muscovite is the most common mica. Both are soft, about 2 to 3 on the Mohs scale.
Stone Meaning: Lepidolite is traditionally associated with calm and transition.
