Smoky
Quartz is the brown "smoky" variety of Quartz. It ranges in color
from light brown to black. Despite its dark color, it is rarely opaque. Smoky quartz is faceted or cut into beads and
cabochons. These gems are often used in rings, pendants, necklaces, earrings,
and brooches for people who like the yellowish brown to brown color.Smoky
quartz with a dark brown color is often used in men's rings and cufflinks.
During the Victorian Period, dark brown stones from the Mourne Mountains of
Ireland were often used in mourning jewelry.Because smoky quartz has a low
price and large pieces are easily obtained, it is a favorite practice material
of people who are learning to facet. It is also frequently used as a carving
material.
