Quartz makes up one of the most popular gemstone groups in the world. The quartz family is the second most abundant mineral found in the Earth's crust. Quartz is known as being the definitive mineral for 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness. Other gemstones are often compared to quartz when it comes to classifying them as being hard, soft or durable.
Quartz comes in a variety of colors and forms. Some quartz gems gems are transparent, while others are completely opaque. White quartz, also known as 'colorless' rock crystal, is one of the most common transparent white gemstone types, and it is quite suitable for most jewelry designs, including daily-wear rings.
However, when used as a diamond substitute, white quartz lacks the fire and dispersion of diamond and sapphire, but it offers excellent affordability and can be found in extremely large sizes. As a diamond alternative, colorless quartz should be given a round-brilliant or diamond-cut. It is not uncommon to find white quartz in oversized cocktail rings and fashion or 'costume' jewelry, often in huge weights and sizes.
When white diamonds simply aren't practical or cost-effective gems, jewelers will often seek out alternative white gems, such as white quartz and white topaz. Clean, faceted topaz and quartz gemstones can often be found weighing 10 carats or more.

It's important to understand what you are buying. Gem stones all vary significantly and you need to adjust your selection based on purpose, cost, expected out come.In my case I was selecting and very attractive heart shaped stone which once set in a pendent would fall in a specific cost range yet present an attractive picture of luxury without extreme risk e.g loss.
