Mercury Mist Quartz, sometimes called Aurora Quartz, is a gemstone that radiates a rainbow of soft, pastel hues reminiscent of the Northern Lights. With its ethereal shimmer and delicate prismatic surface, Mercury Mist Quartz captures light, imagination, and wonder in every glance. Its dreamy palette—often blending pinks, lavenders, blues, and subtle greens—makes it an enchanting centerpiece for jewelry that feels both modern and magical.
Each gem begins as high-quality natural quartz, which undergoes a vapor deposition treatment in which a whisper-thin layer of titanium, platinum, or similar metals is molecularly bonded to the surface. This process creates the gemstone’s signature iridescent glow—a luminous finish that is permanent and stable, unlike dyes or surface coatings. The result is a gemstone that retains its celestial beauty even with regular wear.
With a Mohs hardness of 7, Mercury Mist Quartz is both durable and versatile, perfect for jewelry ranging from dainty pendants and earrings to bold statement rings. Its light-catching prism effect offers a contemporary twist on classic sparkle—ideal for those who love a touch of the extraordinary.
