A rose quartz necklace brings a warm, rosy colour and a distinctly contemporary character to everyday wear. The faceted cut does not hide the stone's structure - each facet catches a different intensity of light and reveals inner flashes that a smooth cabochon would never show. The chain is 43 cm long with a 4 cm adjustable extender, allowing you to tailor the necklace to your neckline and the cut of your outfit.

Only a small fraction of the reviewed raw material makes it into the finished piece - each stone is selected for colour and clarity, without compromise. The availability of quality rose quartz specimens is limited by nature itself, and silver prices are steadily rising, so today's price is an argument in its own right. The metal is refined European sterling silver 925 - an alloy free from allergenic metal additives, safe to wear without concern about allergic reactions or skin irritation. Rhodium deposited on the surface maintains the shine and resistance to tarnishing, which means noticeably less upkeep day to day. The necklace is stamped with a legally protected French maker's mark registered at the French assay office.

Rose quartz has long been associated with love and tenderness - an association that makes this necklace a thoughtful gift. In the evening it works beautifully with a little black dress or a silk blouse with a deeper neckline, where the pink stone at the throat draws the eye without any need for additional jewellery. The clean form and the rich colour of the stone are enough to make the whole look complete.
