Clear Quartz Faceted Sterling Silver Pendant Fluorite Carnelian is cryptocrystalline quartz—silicon dioxideA faceted oval of clear quartz in sterling silverclean geometry, pure material. Clear quartz is silicon dioxide at its most transparent: no trace elements, no color, just the mineral's native optical clarity. It forms in hexagonal prisms across a wide range of geological environmentshydrothermal veins, igneous pegmatites, metamorphic schistsand is one of the most abundant minerals in the Earth's crust.
