The pendant hangs at the center of the chain, so the stone sits where the eye naturally rests. The shape is bold but simple, so the pendant feels considered rather than decorative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant measures about 25.95 by 13.80 millimeters, and the stone weighs about 5.60 carats. It is substantial enough to notice and calm enough to wear with a plain top, a knit or a tailored jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-editorial catalog-editorial--detail\"\u003e\u003cfigure\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3778\/6177\/files\/mel-quiet-root-smoky-quartz-necklace-03-ede3ce0582.jpg?v=1791566668\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"A close view shows the smoky quartz triangle, open gold support and two rounded gold prongs against a pale gray background.\"\u003e\u003cfigcaption\u003eQuiet Root worn on the neck\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-kicker\"\u003eA steady line\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA chain that keeps its place\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-lead\"\u003eA 20 inch chain with a lock-style closure, made to sit steadily at the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20 inch chain falls below the collarbone and stays in place through the day.

Choose the finish that suits the rest of your jewelry and the way you like to dress. A gold vermeil finish suits a warm wardrobe, while silver is an easy match with cool tones and denim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"catalog-reading-grid\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe meaning of grounding\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmoky quartz is often described as a stone of grounding and calm. Quiet Root is a reminder of that grounding, of coming back to your own footing when the day feels loud. The meaning is personal, and the necklace makes no promise of a particular result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome people wear a necklace like this on days when they need to feel anchored, or give it to a friend who likes stones with a natural, earthy tone. Many people keep a piece like this as a steady, everyday companion rather than a special occasion item.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLength and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain is 20 inches, a length that sits below the collarbone for most people. If you prefer a shorter line, consider a choker or a shorter chain you already own for layering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck how the pendant sits against your neckline. The pendant is substantial, so it looks best with a clean neckline that lets the stone stand out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for the chain and stone\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemove the necklace before swimming, showering, exercise and sleep. Keep it away from perfume, lotion and household cleaners, since they can dull the vermeil and the surface of the stone. Keep it away from very hot water and direct heat, which can affect the finish over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter wear, wipe the pendant and chain with a soft dry cloth and store the necklace in a separate pouch. Keep it apart from other chains so the links do not tangle or scratch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Modern Energy Lab","offers":[{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil","offer_id":50638825422913,"sku":"MEL-T20-52560978182515","price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver","offer_id":50638825455681,"sku":"MEL-T20-52560978116979","price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3778\/6177\/files\/mel-quiet-root-smoky-quartz-necklace-01-05563eef57.jpg?v=1791566668","url":"https:\/\/modernenergylab.com\/products\/quiet-root-smoky-quartz-necklace","provider":"Modern Energy Lab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
