💍 Jewellery Suitability
These crystals particularly are famous in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan that is regarded as one of the best sources of pure laser quartz in the world. This part produces good crystals as they have sharp natural points, good clarity, and strong and straight growth. Other locations in the world that contain laser quartz are Brazil and Madagascar although Pakistani material seems to be especially popular in the gemstone and mineral market.
Laser quartz is a crystal which is formed under a limited environment that promotes the growth of the crystal vertically but not horizontally. Consequently, the crystal becomes long and narrow like a pencil rather than developing into a wider prism. This specialized crystallization produces the laser-like shape that identifies these crystals to be different compared to the common quartz.
Laser quartz is made of silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) physically, and it is in trigonal crystal system. Its hardness is 7 on Mohs scale which is durable and can be used in the day-to-day activities of jewellery. The crystals are typically clear or translucent and can be colorless, white, milky, or naturally smoky and they often have visible growth lines and minor inclusions which prove the natural origin.
Laser quartz crystals are most common in jewellery due to their graceful form and beauty of nature. Pendants, necklaces, bracelets, and minimalist rings are particularly popular because of their long and narrow shape, which needs a small amount of cutting, and the natural appearance of the crystal. They are very popular as the modern, handcrafted, and designer jewellery due to their unique appearance.
