Formation
Prasiolite, also known as green quartz, is a rare variety of quartz (SiO₂) that naturally acquires its green coloration through specific geological conditions, often involving heat and iron inclusions. It typically forms in volcanic and metamorphic environments where silica-rich fluids crystallize. For this pendant version, the stones undergo a tumbling process: rough fragments are placed in rotary barrels with abrasives and water. This method polishes and rounds the surfaces, producing a smooth finish that enhances the natural brilliance and subtle green shades of the stone.
Function
Perfect for use in necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, as well as in artisanal jewelry projects. Valued by jewelers, artisans, and wholesalers for its fresh green hues, durability, and elegant polished finish that suits both modern and classic designs.
Care
Clean with a soft cloth or mild soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged exposure to intense sunlight, which can slightly alter the color. Store individually in protective pouches or cases to prevent scratches and impacts.
