What Makes It Special

Native copper is actual metallic copper that crystallized naturally within rock—those peachy-orange flakes catching the light are pure copper. The dark charcoal-gray matrix makes the metallic inclusions stand out even more. Each stone formed over millions of years with completely unique copper distribution. The smooth teardrop shape and clean bezel setting keep it modern while the stone itself tells an ancient story.

Perfect For Your Lifestyle

At 2cm total drop, this pendant is noticeable without getting in your way during daily activities. The 18\" chain length sits at mid-chest and works equally well over a casual henley or a silk blouse. The dark base color with metallic highlights means it pairs with both silver and copper-toned jewelry, and the neutral palette works with any wardrobe color.

About Native Copper

True native copper forms when pure copper crystallizes in volcanic or sedimentary rock. It\'s not refined or processed, just copper in its natural state embedded in stone. The copper pieces you see developed their metallic sheen through geological processes. The dark matrix is typically basalt or other host rock. This native copper is found in Colorado and can be mined in the Cashin Mine in Montrose County, making each piece genuinely special.

Care & Longevity

Clean with a dry, soft cloth only. Avoid water, chemicals, and ultrasonic cleaners. Native copper is softer than most gemstones (around 3 on the Mohs scale), so store separately to prevent scratching and remove before activities that could cause impact.
