Item Description

Quartz is almost certainly the most "inclusion friendly" gem/mineral in the world. You find all kinds of other minerals included inside Quartz, and they often can be polished/faceted into beautiful stone. One of the most popular and abundant examples of this material is the Tourmaline included Quartz from Brazil. This "Freeform Cabochon" cut gem hosts a gemmy, green Tourmaline prism which is suspended inside of the colorless Quartz. These are very attractive and highly collectible gems, and this stone would make a great addition to any collection of "inclusion gemstones", or it could be set into a wonderful pendant.
