White Druzy Quartz Round Cabochons, A-Grade

This A-grade, calibrated oval white druzy quartz cabochon is coated with titanium to bring out a consistent consistent iridescence. White druzy is a fit for jewelry of all types, in designs that range from simple elegance to casual and playful. Set it in a simple pendant mounting or combine it with complementary-color gemstones to create more complex necklace designs and matched sets, including rings and bracelets. The term 'druzy' (or drusy) refers to tiny quartz crystals that are formed inside or on the surface of other gemstones when water containing silica particles is forced into a fissure or porous area of a rock and rapidly cools there. The clear crystals often form on top of previously deposited minerals, which give the particles their color. The crystals create a glittering effect as they reflect light from their many facets. Druzy is inexpensive and easy to cut into a variety of shapes—offering a great deal of color and light-play for a very affordable cost. Rio Grande's calibrated cabochons are calibrated to fit Rio Grande's corresponding size bezel cups, so you know the size you buy will fit properly every single time.
