Item Description
Everybody is probably familiar with this material, but have you seen how these gems have sky-rocketed in popularity recently? I have seen some European gem and jewelry dealers who are SELLING this material for $100 per carat, and it is flying off the shelves. It seems to have found a niche in the European market, and buyers and dealers alike are scooping these gems up as fast as they can find them. I honestly have always liked these gems, but now they are becoming more difficult for me to purchase. This stone is essentially a colorless/smoky "Emerald" cut Quartz stone which features a few beautiful golden metallic Rutile needles. With the high prices being paid for these gems, they may stay at a high value from now on. This gem is priced at UNDER $1 per carat for the $100 starting bid, so don't miss out on this great opportunity.
