Item Description
A beautiful custom, one-of-a-kind pendant featuring a lovely, bright pink, gemmy, "Pear" cut Rose Quartz set into a Sterling Silver pendant. The piece was completely hand-made by Brett Kosnar, and his signature can be seen on the reverse side of the bale. Rose Quartz is the well known, light pink color variety of Quartz. Some research has indicated that the color in Rose Quartz is caused by micro inclusion of minerals such as Domortierite. The material is beloved for its unique pink color which ranges from a soft pink to a rather rich vivid pink from some localities. Rose Quartz stones are often used in cabochons as the material is rarely clean enough for faceted gems, because the majority of it is "milky" or "cloudy". This particular stone is a very good sized gem and has great bright clarity for a Rose Quartz. A wonderful unique, full-sized pendant that would make a great holiday gift!
