The citrine leads here, and it is a transparent quartz in warm yellow through to amber tones. Set against that, the sterling silver is a bright white metal with a cool tone and a high polish. The proportions are kept to a hanging piece that sits at the collarbone, and the design belongs to Dolma Designs, a series using compassion and quiet courage as contemporary design themes.
What follows is a plain description of each material, including how it changes. Citrine needs a separate note: it takes a bright polish and holds colour well, though it is worth keeping out of long exposure to strong sun. Sterling Silver — a cool white metal that takes a mirror-bright polish. Day to day, softer than steel, it collects fine scratches, and the surface slowly shifts toward a darker tone. The silver-tone metal appears as a bright silver-coloured metal finish rather than solid silver. Against the skin, it keeps its tone with normal wear, and a plated surface can thin over years of daily contact.
The fit is set from the measurement you supply, so nothing is assumed. Tell us how you intend to wear it and we will point at the option that suits it. Joy and abundance describe the intention a wearer may bring to it, not a guaranteed result. Colour, veining and grain differ between individual stones and beads, which is normal rather than a fault. The piece, its dimensions and the preparation window are set out in writing first, and only then is payment taken.
Care
Avoid impact and household chemicals and wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Keep it dry, store it in a low-air space, and use a non-abrasive silver cloth when you want the original brightness back. Keep it away from water, perfume and abrasive cloths so the finish lasts longer. Water, perfume and cleaning products are the three things most likely to shorten its life. Storing it apart from other pieces keeps the surface in the condition it arrived in.
