United States, ca. late 20th to 21st century CE. A beautiful modern pendant with a polished piece of semitranslucent quartz with dendrite formations set in 14K gold pendant setting, with 4 faceted diamonds and a moonstone cabochon. The pendant is strung on a cord as a wearable necklace, but could be paired with a chain if one desired. Dendrite is a natural geological formation, the work of water seeping into the fissures; water rich in manganese and-oxide and iron hydroxide found its way into the layers of fractured rock and the crystals slowly grew over time, forming the black inclusions seen here. Size of pendant: 1.3" L x 0.6" W (3.3 cm x 1.5 cm); cord: 21" L (53.3 cm); gold quality: 61% (equivalent to 14K+); weight: 4 grams
