Crystal is commonly used in necklaces and smaller jewelry like earrings and rings often it is used as a piece to go along with a fantasy based style. This particular style involves dragons and other mythical creatures or even jewelry that is bold and has a Gothic edge to it. The Celtic Dragon Energy Pewter Necklace is one that is on the market now, and is a good example of the fantasy style crystal necklace. It has a large red crystal that is surrounded by a Celtic knot design that crosses above it and then meets again at the top where it turns into a dragon head, giving this an overall shape of an “8″ with the crystal at the very bottom. Having dark material in the main part of the necklace, the crystal reflects light making it look very bright and contrasts nicely with the dark metal.
