These granite and basalt mix pendants have been cut from original cobblestones that were too badly worn to re-set on the Edinburgh Royal Mile, or excess to requirements, when it was widened, repaired and refurbished in 2021, and so rather than them end up in landfill, they were salvaged and cut into miniature versions of those “setts” that line the ancient walkways of Edinburgh’s old town.

The stones have a lovely curved cut with a flat base and are beautifully polished, revealing the mix of black, grey and pink within the granite/basalt rock. There are also tiny sparkly flecks of quartz within the rock. They have a nice weight to them and I’ve kept the setting really simple, using a minimal Sterling Silver bail to suspend them from the Sterling Silver snake chain, so the focus is fully on the beautiful stone. The chain is finished with a lobster clasp.

Chain: 925 Sterling Silver fine (0.8mm) Snake Chain – length 18 inches (45.75cm). If you require an extender chain, which will be a 2-inch (5cm) curb chain, please select this option above.
Stone: Edinburgh Royal Mile Cobblestone made of granite and basalt, measuring approximately 23.5mm to 25.5mm long, 12mm to 15mm wide and 5mm deep
Metal: all metal components are 925 Sterling Silver – the clasp and quality tag are both stamped 925

Every piece of jewellery is made with care and will give you many years of joy if looked after properly. Here are a few simple tips to keep it looking its best.

Avoid contact with water, lotions, perfumes, hairspray, suncream/aftersun, shampoos, soaps and so on. It’s best to put your jewellery on last, after applying all make-up, hairsprays, perfumes, etc.
It is not advisable to wear your jewellery when swimming, showering or bathing, or in such environments as a sauna, or when intensively exercising (due to sweat being not only wet, but also salty). You should never wear jewellery when using exercise equipment or equipment in the workplace where it could become caught in machinery.
Included with your purchase is a small cleaning cloth which you can use from time to time to give your jewellery a gentle clean and polish. Take extra care with plated metals as cleaning too vigorously may cause the plated surface to become damaged. Gemstone jewellery should not be immersed in water for cleaning as this can damage the surface of the stones. If it needs a deeper clean, I would recommend taking your jewellery instead to a local jeweller that provides such services.
It’s best to store your jewellery in a dark, dry place, like a jewellery box or similar, to reduce the risk of tarnish to the metal elements. However, if tarnish does occur, this can easily be removed using an anti-tarnish cloth.
