Warm before you even think about it.
A raw Facet A grade citrine crystal, natural, untreated, and unheated, somewhere between 0.75 and 1 inch of genuine golden quartz, electroformed in copper until the metal grows flush with the stone's natural edges. Hung from an 18-inch copper satellite chain, it sits just below the collarbone, close to the heart. The kind of piece you put on in the morning without thinking and notice only when the light catches it.
Citrine forms in the same quartz family as amethyst, its warm golden color coming from trace iron in the earth. Long associated with clarity, optimism, and forward momentum. November birthstone. Solar plexus chakra. The stone you reach for when you need to feel energized and clear.
Citrine is associated with warmth, clarity, and joyful momentum. The November birthstone. Wear it when you need to feel energized and clear.
Why Citrine
Citrine is a variety of quartz colored by trace amounts of iron, ranging from pale yellow to deep amber gold. Formed in igneous and metamorphic rock, often found alongside amethyst in the same deposits. Long associated with clarity, optimism, and abundance across cultures. November birthstone. Solar plexus chakra. The stone of forward motion and warm, focused energy.
Most citrine on the market is heat-treated amethyst, purple quartz artificially turned golden through high-temperature processing. The stones used in this studio are natural, untreated, unheated Facet A grade citrine: genuine golden quartz with its original color, clarity, and mineral integrity fully intact. That distinction matters both for quality and for honesty.
No mystical claims. Just a genuinely rare and beautiful stone with a meaning that fits real life.

How This Necklace Is Made
Each citrine necklace is made to order in a small Santa Fe studio. I hand-select every raw Facet A grade crystal for its color depth and natural form, then grow copper directly around the stone through an electroforming process, following every edge and surface exactly. No molds, no mass production. Every necklace is one of a kind.
Because these are natural raw citrine crystals, each stone varies in color depth, size, and form. No two necklaces are identical.
Care
Remove before swimming, showering, or applying lotions. Store dry. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade citrine's golden color over time. Polish copper with a soft cloth to maintain warmth or let the patina deepen naturally with wear.
Gift Packaging
Every order arrives gift-ready with natural materials and a handwritten note card. Add your message in the order notes.

Product Details
Materials & Metals
Each necklace is handcrafted from raw copper, and may include elements of brass, bronze, silver, or stainless steel, paired with carefully chosen stones, crystals, or natural elements.
Every piece is shaped by hand through the slow process of electroforming — a melding of earth, metal, and time that creates unique textures and forms.
All metals are nickel-free and sealed for comfortable, daily wear. Slight variations in color, texture, or patina are natural signs of the handmade process — each one-of-a-kind, just like its wearer.
Chain Options
Necklaces are available in a variety of lengths to fit every ritual and style:
- 16–18 inches – sits high at the collarbone
- 20–22 inches – a classic mid-chest length
- 24–30 inches – longer talisman style for layering
Chain styles may include cable, rolo, or oxidized link, chosen to complement each pendant’s design.
Leather Option
Select designs feature a soft, durable leather cord, fully adjustable from 12 to 24 inches.
Leather cords offer a grounded, natural feel and can be worn short as a choker or long for layering — making them versatile for both men’s and women’s styles.
Care & Maintenance
All metals and leather will naturally age with time and wear — it’s part of their alchemy.
To maintain brightness, polish gently with a soft cloth. To preserve patina or aged finish, simply wipe clean and store in a dry place. Avoid prolonged contact with water, lotion, or perfume.
Remove before showering or swimming. Use a soft cloth; avoid abrasive polishing on patinated copper.
Copper Protection
Embrace the Patina
Some collectors love the rich, aged look that copper develops over time. This natural patina tells a story—of adventures taken, energies absorbed, and the passage of time. If you resonate with that earthy, vintage look, feel free to let your copper evolve organically.
Why add lacquer?
- Slows the natural darkening (patina) of copper
- Minimizes the chance of skin reactions
- Keeps copper looking brighter for longer
- Protects while preserving the earthy character of your jewelry
Details:
- Optional upgrade available for $5
- Applied directly to your copper ring, necklace, earrings, cuff, or bracelet before shipping
- Clear finish — no change to the look or feel of your piece
