What is Druzy?

June 05, 2020

Druzy pendants are trending this Spring. You maybe wondering what exactly is "druzy?" Wikipedia states that "in geology, druse refers to a coating of fine crystal on a rock fracture surface, vein or within a geode. Because of its sparkling appearance, druse is sometimes used in jewelry making.

Both glittering effect of the tiny crystals and the color of the base mineral are factors when selecting druse for this purpose." - I have to admit, I'm a little obsessed with druzy pendants and agate slices. These little gems can be found in an assortment of Bead Gallery products, click here for design inspiration.
