The MONEDITA design
The MONEDITA format reduces the jewel to its essential geometry: the circle. The mineral occupies 75% of the visible diameter, framed by a satin silver bezel that contrasts with the stone's mirror polish. At 3 mm thick, the piece has presence without weight.
The MONEDITA minerals in lapidary tradition
Each of the five minerals has a historical presence in jewelry. Amethyst, a gem of bishops and kings in medieval Europe, lends its name to a color. Citrine shone in 20th-century art deco brooches. Moonstone was admired by the Romans for its connection to the goddess Selene. Peridot appears in the pectorals of pharaohs from Ancient Egypt. Almandine garnet has been the traveler's gem since antiquity. In crystal tradition: amethyst (calm), citrine (clarity), moonstone (intuition), peridot (growth), garnet (grounding).

How to distinguish MONEDITA minerals
Amethyst shows violet with possible zoning under magnification; genuine citrine has a warm yellow without a greenish hue. Rainbow moonstone is recognized by its adularescence: the bluish flash that seems to float when moved under light. Peridot has a characteristic yellowish-green; almandine garnet, dark red with an intense vitreous luster.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are MONEDITA minerals natural and untreated?
Yes. The mineral discs come from lapidary material without detectable treatment — each mineral has its color due to its specific mineralogical composition, not by staining. This statement is based on lapidary observation; the piece does not include formal gemological certification.
Can I choose the mineral when ordering?
The variant is selected from the product sheet menu. The pendant is made to order with the chosen mineral. Timelines are indicated in the purchase conditions.
Are all five variants the same size?
Yes. All MONEDITA discs measure 13 mm in diameter and about 3 mm in thickness. The circular shape is the same for all five variants; only the mineral and its color change.
How do I care for my MONEDITA pendant?
Store in an individual case. Remove before contact with water, perfume, or chemicals. Silver can oxidize; a specific silver polishing cloth will restore it. Consult our complete care guide.
