This is a very brilliant lemon quartz gemstone from Brazil that is a hefty size at 8.94cts. Lemon quartz is treated. It comes from the ground as a colorless stone and irradiation changes the color to this lemon color. Not all quartz changes as dramatically, so the more intense the color the more valuable it is. Because my wife and I pick all gemstones that we sell here by hand, we get the good ones!

This stone measures 13.98 x 10.07 x 8.51mm deep. It is a great size for jewelry or if you want something to hold in your hand and adore the sparkle- as many collectors do- it is also good for that! It has great color and the cut is excellent for superb brilliance, or light return. Most stones in the wholesale gem markets are not very well-cut. We select the best ones and offer them to the bitcoin community.
