Whisky Quartz Pendant – Argentium Silver Cage – 102 Carat
I set an exceptional 102 carat trillion-cut Whisky Quartz in a structured cage setting. First, I texture two panels of Argentium Silver 940 using a Magnolia leaf from our yard. Then I fabricate silver bars to form a cage that holds the depth of the gemstone. Instead of using a traditional bail, I allow the chain to pass directly through the cage. As a result, the pendant hangs closer to the body and remains stable.
This Whisky Quartz carries a VS rating, which means it has very small inclusions. Because of its size and clarity, the stone reflects light with strength and warmth. Meanwhile, the leaf-textured panels introduce contrast against the precision of the cage. Although the gemstone is bold, the structure keeps it balanced.
Design & Feel
This pendant feels architectural and powerful. The cage creates clean lines and angles. At the same time, the organic leaf texture softens the structure. Because the chain passes through the frame, the design feels integrated and secure. It reflects the strength and clarity of the STRUCTURE collection.

I texture the silver panels before forming the cage structure. Then I solder the framework carefully to support the gemstone’s depth. After setting the Quartz securely, I refine and polish the surface to achieve a clean, bright finish.
