DOOZY OF A DRUZY

Druzy has become quite a popular commodity in recent jewelry trends. Tiny, bright crystals coating these gems make them appear as if they have been dipped in sugar. This unique look is very distinguishable and highly sought-after. The druzy effect is achieved by rising minerals to the surface of a stone (like quarts or agate) via water. Once the water evaporates, crystallization of the minerals occurs. Often times, designers will dye the crystals or coat them with a metallic or iridescent finish. Elegant and high-fashion, druzy is a personal favorite and a must-have!
