I dug this out of the bottom of a basket filled with junk. It was bent and dirty. Only stamped 925 in two places. I have not come across a crystal cut in this manner, and the light reflection is really something. No damage to the crystal. The color in the photos is the true color. I had first thought it was Swarovski, but it lacks the proper marks.
Thanks for looking!

The cut makes it really very interesting. I would like to know what kind of stone it is. It doesn't have to be only quartz or some imitation gemstone.
Beautiful ring. I have a similar one, it was called a "Champagne" cz. Martika maybe correct, and there's a 'real' gem.

I did wonder if it might be a genuine semi-precious stone, as it's completely polished. I've seen the champagne CZ stones, but nothing like this one. This is a sort of orangey/pink color.
Such a beautiful ring!
Wow Bonnie!!!! love the colour, very unusual.......
What a skillful fantasy cut!!!
I'm with Martika for not being a basic CZ or quartz...
50 cents... Grrr as Katherine will say ;-D
That is one of newer faceting styles called concave cut / millenium cut, it's popular for CZ.
