Strawberry Quartz is a rare variety of quartz that gets its color from inclusions of various forms of iron oxide. The shade of the Strawberry Quartz varies from pink to bright red.
Quartz crystals possess a phenomenon called the Piezoelectric Effect. This is the ability to generate an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress. Piezoelectricity is how quartz time pieces work.
These stones were mined in Madagascar. Strawberry quartz is most often found in Russia and in neighboring regions such as Kazakhstan, as well as in Brazil.
Peridot is the birthstone for August and the 15th anniversary gemstone.
Gem miners find peridot in the United States, China, and Vietnam, Finland, Pakistan, Myanmar, and the island of Zabargad. These Peridot beads were mined in China.
The 24K Rose Gold Vermeil beads in this bracelet have been handcrafted by skilled artisans of the Karen Hill Tribe of northern Thailand. These artisans use traditional methods of metalsmithing handed down from generation-to-generation and are world renowned for their fine quality beads and jewelry.
