Dendritic Quartz

Item Description

Quartz is easily the most "inclusion friendly" gem out there. This stone is what is known as Dendritic Quartz with inclusions of Manganese oxide or Iron oxide. The word Dendritic comes from the Greek word "dendros" meaning tree, as the inclusions in Dendritic Quartz typically resemble plant life. This stone has some slight, wispy inclusions with a beautiful golden hue.. The stone was difficult to photograph, but is beautiful up close. It has a simple "Pendulum Cabochon" cut, and is one of the larger gems of this material that I have offered in a while. For the $100 starting bid, this stone is priced below wholesale.
