Titanium Aura Spirit Quartz Point Claw Set Sterling Silver Pendant

Spirit, cactus, or pineapple quartz is a quartz point or cluster covered in a coat of smaller crystal points, giving a bristled or sparkling surface. Citrine spirit quartz may be natural or heated. In crystal traditions, spirit quartz is associated with community and with a lifted mood. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim. Sterling silver is 92.5% silver, often stamped .925; like all silver, it can tarnish over time and can be brightened with a soft polishing cloth.

Because the material is natural, its color and pattern vary from piece to piece. The title describes a claw (prong) setting that holds the stone. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
