A sterling silver pendant that brings together agate and rutilated quartz. The two stones are paired in one piece, so earthy agate sits beside the fine golden needles of the quartz.

Wear it on a chain of your choice; please note the chain is not included. A thoughtful gift for her, whether for a birthday, an anniversary or just because. Hand-picked by our founders in Thailand and imported directly by Wanderlust Jewelry.

About Agate

Agate is a variety of chalcedony (microcrystalline quartz) known for colour patterns, usually flat or concentric bands, coloured by traces of iron, manganese and other metal oxides.

Hardness
6.5-7 (Mohs)
Everyday wear
Agates are remarkably durable and tough enough for most jewellery uses.
Care
As a chalcedony, agate needs no special care; clean it with mild detergent, warm water and a soft brush.
Meaning and tradition
In modern crystal guides, agate is associated with stability and grounding.
About Quartz

Quartz (silicon dioxide) is one of the most common minerals on earth, found colourless (rock crystal) and in many colours and varieties.

Hardness
7 (Mohs)
Everyday wear
Quartz has a hardness of 7 and a "very good" wearability rating, so it suits everyday jewellery.
Care
Quartz needs no special care; clean it with warm water, mild detergent and a soft brush.
Meaning and tradition
Ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans valued quartz crystals as talismans. In modern crystal guides, clear quartz is associated with clarity and focus, smoky quartz with grounding and calm, and rutilated quartz with clarity and intention.

Meanings and traditions are beliefs people have held about these stones, not proven effects, and are no substitute for medical advice.
