Some jewelers call this gem "smoky topaz", a misnomer, for as the name implies, smoky quartz is quartz that has a range of tones -- light pale brown to very dark transparent brown -- which is associated with the range of color for smoke. These colors can vary even within the same crystals. As legend holds, it was worn to calm the mind and give stability in body and spirit. We hope that you will visit Ralph Miller Jewelers to see our selection of faceted and cabochon cut smoky quartz stones.
