Item Description
Rose Quartz is the pink variety of Quartz whose color is caused by Titanium. 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 set of "Pear" cut stones are very good sized gems and have great clarity for Rose Quartz. Thye are very impressive, very very slightly "milky", pink color gems. The starting bid puts this set at just over $5 per carat, which is a great price for gems of this quality and size
