Smoky Quartz Gemstone Pendant Faceted 925 Silver 18x23 mm

Smoky quartz is among the oldest known protective stones – it was worn as an amulet against danger as early as antiquity. Its characteristic brown to grey-brown color is created by natural gamma radiation within the Earth, which alters the crystal structure of the quartz.
