THE DARK CRYSTAL NECKLACE

Dimensions:
(W x H x L) 1.8 cm x 5.5 cm x 1.7 cm
Weight: 0.073 lbs (0.033 kg)

At the heart of Thra is the Crystal, linking all living things of the world. In the Age of Division, the wicked Skeksis cracked the once pure Crystal of Light and drew upon its power to extend their own thin lives across the eons.

Long years of misuse have poisoned the great jewel, and where once a clear white light emanated in radiance, now rivulets of sick purple spread across its surface. As the Crystal darkens, so too veins of corrupting energy flow out like clawed fingers into the world of Thra, spreading the Darkening to all that they touch.  

This bewitching necklace joins Weta Workshop’s exquisitely detailed range of Dark Crystal collectibles; a range that pays homage to the richly layered, fantastical world of Thra.

FEATURES:

  • Based on 3D scans provided by Netflix;
  • Shaped to be an exact replica of the Crystal seen on screen;
  • Draconic claw inspired by the Skeksis clasp system in the Castle of the Crystal;
  • Resin pendant complete with gunmetal-plated brass claw;
  • Includes a 20 in (51cm) stainless steel chain;
  • Encased in a gift box.

These collectibles were a dream to art direct. I feel like a Skeksis sitting at the banquet table, ready to feast on the amazing opportunities before me. There is so much to choose from!

Daniel Falconer - Art Director & Senior Concept Designer, Weta Workshop

OUR DARK CRYSTAL COLLECTIBLES

So rich and visionary was Jim Henson’s 1982 passion project that it inspired dreamers across the creative arts, including a whole generation of film effects artists now working at Weta Workshop. Released at a time when many of our crew were young and beginning to explore their own creative energies, The Dark Crystal was an eye-opener: it was possible to bring imaginary worlds to life, and it could be a career! For years, those of us who had fallen in love with this world hoped that someday Thra might return to our screens. Thanks to Netflix, it has, and now we have the chance to express our fandom by creating super faithful, highly detailed collectible figures and prop replicas from The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.

And this is just the beginning! More Dark Crystal collectibles are coming soon.

  1. Love it
    Quality
    100%
    Had this necklace for over a year now, wear it almost all the time, the dark crystal is one of my favorites and to have may own heart of Thra is amazing, I read the description and knew it was resin and I understand why others might be disappointed about that but honestly this replica is fantastic I get complimented on it all the timr, people asking where I got it or where I found a crystal that big. I'm bummed that a year later that I found disappointing reviews even though the necklace is sold out I hope it comes back soon i was hoping to buy another one, and if it does come back in stock for anyone looking to buy if your a fan wanting and hoping for a real crystal please read the description it states that the replica is made of resin and if that's okay with you then go for it.

  2. Misleading photos
    The crystal is resin, but it looks like cheap cloudy plastic. Very disappointing.

  3. Marvellous Necklace Design
    This was given to me as a birthday present last year from a friend, whom bought it from a local Zing Pop Culture store, and I have adored this necklace ever since! The attention to detail in the design, colour, high quality and durability, along with the beautiful packaging and thoughtful descriptions are breathtaking! This necklace has been a fantastic way for me to remember the world of Thra whenever I wear it.

  4. Disappointing
    Received this necklace today and I\'m a bit disappointed in the quality of the crystal. As others have said in their reviews, the claw part is great but the actual crystal looks quite cheap and mine has very visible raised lines left over from the moulding process. I\'ve ordered items from Weta many times and expected a lot better from them.

  5. Dissapointed
    I\'ve been really looking forward to getting this, i was so excited when it finally arrived. The box is beautiful, clearly plenty time had gone into its design. But then you open the box and you\'re met by a tacky cheap plastic looking crystal. As someone else has already said, the claws holding it are great, but unfortunately the crystal ruins instead of makes the knecklace. Not helped by the fact that all in this cost £50. Personally, i wouldn\'t recommend it as i don\'t feel it lives up to the normal Weta standards I\'ve seen.

    Just disappointed! Plastic looking crystal, dull and cloudy. Probably won\'t ever wear.

  7. A bit disappointing
    Waited longer than expected to arrive, partly due to Covid-19, but one of the delays was due to quality issues.

    The crystal doesn\'t look as good as in the picture, was expecting to have a darkish transparent finish like the picture (bit like Amethyst).

    But the detail on the claws are really good, and the packaging it comes in is well presented aswell.

  8. A little bit of a disappointment
    While the claw looks fantastic and the packaging is very nice, the resin of the crystal looks kinda dull and cloudy and it\'s got a slight yellowish tint to it in certain light.
