These 8mm round cabochon pendants feature natural Idocrase—also known as Vesuvianite—set in a bright silver-plated bezel with a clean, minimal profile. Each stone shows the gem’s signature olive-to-leafy green glow, with a softly polished dome and fully calibrated footprint for easy pairing.
Idocrase earned its alternate name Vesuvianite after its 18th-century discovery on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius, where the mineral formed in limestone altered by volcanic heat. Today it’s prized for its earthy, botanical color palette and its unusual place in gem history—part metamorphic mineral, part volcanic treasure.
Sold individually so you can build precise layouts: perfect for earrings, charm clusters, or accent drops in mixed-green palettes alongside peridot, prehnite, or jade.
