Gold quartz cabochons are made by slicing and polishing high grade gold ore or quartz specimen nuggets. They are often used in the production of jewelry pendants, watches and bangles. Smaller cabs can even be made into earrings. The best pieces are often a white brilliant white bull quartz with gold veins spidering through the cabs.
Look for pieces from the 16 to 1 mine in California. Their cabochons are beyond compare.
