Welcome to Sea Green Mermaid!

This stunning Victorian era gold-in-quartz pendant is a magnificent little piece of history! Featuring a large oval of rare natural gold-bearing quartz framed in beautifully crafted 14k yellow gold, this one-of-a-kind treasure combines the romance of the Victorian era with the extraordinary beauty of gold in its natural form.

Gold-in-Quartz, also called Gold Quartz or Gold-Bearing Quartz, is a rare and highly sought-after gemstone. It forms when natural gold occurs within quartz, creating beautiful veins and flecks of precious metal that run through the stone. The most desirable specimens feature creamy white or pale gray quartz with abundant visible gold, making each piece a miniature work of art created by Mother Nature herself.

This gorgeous specimen features warm cream and gray quartz threaded with brilliant veins and flecks of natural gold. The golden inclusions form wonderfully irregular patterns across the stone, creating a striking contrast with the soft, neutral background. No two pieces of gold quartz are ever exactly alike.

The gemstone has natural surface crackle lines and fissures, which are part of its unique character. Please examine our magnified photographs for the most accurate view of the stone's surface.

The large oval gemstone is securely held in a hand-crafted 14k yellow gold bezel setting, beautifully accented with a delicate raised twisted-rope border. A broad, polished gold frame surrounds the stone, giving the pendant an elegant, substantial appearance. The large attached 14k gold bail accommodates your favorite chain.

This remarkable piece began its life as a Victorian era pin, which we have thoughtfully transformed into a pendant so it can be enjoyed and treasured for another generation. You can see evidence of the original pin's removal on the back.

A truly one-of-a-kind heirloom treasure, this beautiful pendant is perfect for anyone who appreciates antique jewelry, rare natural gemstones, and the romance of gold rush history. What a wonderful opportunity to own a little piece of the earth's golden magic!
