Colourful Unakite Gemstone

Pretty unakite pendant necklace crafted in a hand-made sterling silver setting. This polished cabochon is a lighter shade of green than is usually seen in unakite and the inclusions of pink orthoclase are wonderfully subtle. Due to the angle at which our first photo was taken the pendant appears to be slightly rounder than it actually is.

This colourful variety of granite is popular as a lapidary material and being quite hard makes it easy to work with. Unakite cabochons can be highly polished and tend to be mounted in silver as opposed to gold. In the world of crystal healing it's believed to facilitate a healthy pregnancy and ensures good health for the unborn child. It can also help with restlessness, relaxation and dealing with stressful situations.

Surprisingly light weight this unakite pendant comes in protective pouch that will help keep the gemstone safe and minimise any build-up of tarnish on the sterling silver.
