About the Stone
Clear quartz is a hard, colourless silica that cuts cleanly and holds a sharp facet edge, which is why it takes this kind of small faceted work well. Its faint internal veils are healed fractures from the crystal's growth and are visible under close light. Stones are matched for clarity as closely as the material allows.

- Note
Clear quartz is silicon dioxide grown in a repeating three-dimensional lattice, and it grows as six-sided prisms because of that lattice. Its internal wisps are healed fractures and trapped fluid from the time the crystal formed.
