Diamonds are overrated!

I try and buy quality jewelry for my girlfriend. Diamonds are great for cutting things, but really it's just a nice piece of clear glass.

This woman is involved in fair trade gems and jewelry design.
Her website is www.zaharadesign.com

Dendritic Quartz
Dendritic Quartz contains a marking resembling moss or a tree form (in upper center of piece). In this one of a kind generator crystal, it is comprised of chlorite which brings a closeness with nature and a connection to Gaia or Mother Earth
Lodolite
Lodolite is truly a rare treasure of nature. Lodolite was created over millions of years - it is a variety of quartz with unique mineral inclusions. Some strands may have some beads with golden rutile or red hair inclusions.
