Raw Covellite Chalcocite Pendant Wire Wrapped .925 Sterling Silver

Raw Covellite Chalcocite Pendant Wire Wrapped in .925 Sterling Silver Round Wire

A bright reflective lustrous natural stone displaying a dominant charcoal blue-lavender black metallic appearance intermixed with more subtle lighter gray metallic coloration. While presented reasonably well with most colors of clothing, it is best worn with gray based (gray/silver, green, blue, purple) vs brown based (brown, red, orange, yellow/gold), as the metallic blue color tends to more enhanced against gray based colors. Also wears well with earth tone, and dark colors, bright, and light colors, very nice with black; also a good conversation piece. A raw broken natural surface, and non-standard shape and contour, appeal most to an artistic or naturalistic view.

Comment: Some of the metallic blue appears like tarnish, as the stone will not appear so blue shortly after cleaning and polishing, but the metallic blue color will reappear after some time (a few days or a week). To retain the metallic blue color, care should be taken when cleaning and re-polishing the silver wire.
