THE STORY OF THIS PIECE
AMULET — STRUGA earrings and necklaces built around raw, wild-growth stones. The amulets of this family differ widely — from quiet and classic, a Japanese reading of minimalism, to large and declarative. The most expressive is the THORN amulet: a halved-torpedo form with a crystal grown inside; an homage to Daniel Arsham.

A raw, wild-grown green quartz crystal under a silver cap: a smooth trapezoid of 925 silver sits on the top of the stone and is cut on a diagonal, leaving the prism face and its sharp point open below. A semicircular bail rises from the cap, carrying a 75 cm anchor chain. AMULET family, Classic model: 9 g, $1050. This piece is one of one and sold; a close necklace is made to order in about two weeks.
Material: 925 silver with no rhodium plating — cap, bail and chain.
World and family: RITUAL → AMULET, Classic model (E-0530).
Stone: raw, wild-grown green quartz, olive-grey against the light, uncut; described as material and form only, with no claims of effect.
Finish: Living Silver — 925 without plating; it darkens with air and skin, and the patina is a property, not a defect.
Weight and length: 9 g, 75 cm chain — the pendant sits at mid-chest.
Price: $1050.
Availability: sold; a close necklace is made to order in about two weeks.
Care: soft cloth or silver-cleaning solution; avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
The setting does not wrap the stone. It is a flat-faceted cap pulled over the top of the crystal and cut on a diagonal, so the line of silver crosses the stone at an angle. The metal is light and polished: every facet holds its own highlight, and the shadow falls into the seams between them. The crystal comes out from under the cap whole: natural prism faces, a sharp point, a matte unpolished surface. The colour is olive-grey with green in it; against the light the stone reads cloudy rather than clear.
AMULET is a family of the RITUAL world: earrings and necklaces built around raw, wild-grown stones. Classic is the quiet part of it, a Japanese reading of minimalism — as little metal as possible, the stone left open. Every amulet is one of one, and the stone never repeats: the next necklace of this model will come with its own crystal.
925 sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver. The surface is Living Silver, left unplated: the metal darkens with air and skin, the recesses gather shadow, and friction lightens the facets of the cap. To bring the metal back to the light, care for it. Nine grams on a 75 cm chain — the weight is present, and the piece is still made to be worn every day.
How it is made: the setting is modelled in 3D or by hand in wax. A silicone form is taken from the model and the silver is cast. A master then finishes the setting by hand and sets the chosen stone into it.

Who it is for, and when
This necklace is for someone who wears one piece rather than a set. A 75 cm chain drops the pendant to mid-chest: it lies over a shirt or a T-shirt and reads whole, without an open collar and without neighbours on the neck. The piece is unisex. Nine grams do not press: the weight is there, but the object can be worn all day. It belongs where one large piece is wanted instead of scattered jewelry — in daily wear, on the road, on a shoot. As a gift it is honest to arrange in advance: a wild-grown stone never repeats, so an exact copy cannot be made, while a close necklace — same look, same size, same finishing — is made to order in about two weeks. For a transparent stone instead, the Classic model holds a clear quartz necklace.

Ask a question →Frequently asked questions
How much does the necklace weigh and how long is the chain?
The necklace weighs 9 grams and the chain is 75 cm. It is 925 silver with no plating: cap, bail and chain in the same metal. At this length the pendant sits at mid-chest and reads over a shirt.
This piece is sold — can I order the same one?
An exact copy cannot be made: the stone grew in the wild and no two are alike. Through the 'Buy a similar one' button STRUGA builds a close necklace — the same Classic model, the same setting size and the same finishing, with its own crystal, its own pattern and shade. It takes about two weeks.
What does a raw, wild-grown stone mean, and why does it not repeat?
It is a stone that grew in its natural shape and was never cut. The green quartz in this necklace was chosen for its olive shade and the geometry of the prism with its sharp point. Each amulet is built around its own crystal, so colour, form and character differ every time. STRUGA describes the stone as material and form only, with no claims of any effect.
Why does the silver darken, and how do I care for it?
The surface is Living Silver — 925 silver without rhodium plating. The piece arrives light and darkens with air and skin: the recesses gather shadow, while friction lightens the facets of the cap. Patina is a property, not a defect. To bring the metal back to the light, care for it with a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
What are the AMULET family and the Classic model?
AMULET is a STRUGA family from the RITUAL world: earrings and necklaces built around raw, wild-grown stones. Classic is the quiet part of the family, a Japanese reading of minimalism — as little metal as possible, the stone left open. Every AMULET object is one of one and made with its own stone.
