AAA Dumortierite Quartz on Sterling Silver French Hooks (Pear Briolette Cut)

Our lovely, AAA Dumortierite Quartz Gemstones set on Sterling Silver French Hooks, are the perfect summer statement, which will pair very nicely with many of our Sea Glass Pendants. Dumortierite Quartz is a rare and a quite beautiful stone that is prized for its vibrant blue color.

This unusual Pear Briolette cut was designed by Lodewyk van Bercken, a Belgian Jeweler, in 1476. This cut requires a more advanced technique than round cuts, making Gemstones cut in a Pear Briolette style, very rare and quite expensive. This particular cut is mostly used for stones with color, such as Sapphires and some varieties of Quartz. This style of cutting was made popular during the Victorian Era and has remained so today.  

The presence of the mineral Dumortierite can also cause Quartz to take on a violet-blue hue, which is extremely rare. This intergrowth is referred to as Dumortierite Quartz, rather than Blue Quartz. Dumortierite is believed to enhance wisdom, virtue and good fortune. It is also associated with support, organization, and patience. (Sing me up for a pair too!) “It's thought to reduce inflammation, alleviate digestive issues and even aid in relieving symptoms of carpal tunnel and epilepsy,”according to Gem Rock Auctions. 

Dumortierite is a relatively durable gemstone and can withstand exposure to water. However, it's a good idea to handle it with care, and to avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals and extreme temperatures.

These gorgeous earrings, will make a lovely Birthday Gift, an Anniversary Gift or as a gift for yourself! (You deserve it!) All of our Dumortierite Quartz Earrings are truly one of a kind, because although I have a few Dumortierite pieces, they do vary in shape and in size, therefore none are quite like this one. If it's "speaking to you," come right on by, and scoop this lovely up today!

Please be aware that the prices of our Dumortierite Quartz pieces depend on many things. Most importantly to understand, is that the better quality of Dumortierite Quartz, the higher the price will be. When rare colors, or uniquely cut pieces of Dumortierite Quartz are used, an increase in price is to be expected. The size of the Dumortierite Quartz will also be taken into consideration. As artists, we have gone to great lengths, and spent a considerable amount of time, trying to find both quality and affordable pieces. Please feel free to contact us with any questions that you may have before making your purchase, we are always very happy to help!

This listing is for one pair of earrings only.
