wish these were actually quartz as the description reads...
The color is not near as vivid as the picture depicts, as I'm sure you're aware by the many other reviews of this same problem. However, I could look past that if they were actually selling what they claim to. These are not quartz, but instead most likely glass, as there are tiny air bubbles throughout most of the pieces which indicate them to be fake -- genuine quartz does not have bubbles from being naturally formed. I bought these pieces to use for my handmade jewelry and now I cannot make them since they are not real and I don't want to deceive my clients. Very disappointed at the false advertising here.

Realistic enough for crafts. But they are not actual real crystals.
These look pretty awesome. Perfect for what i will be using them for. I do not think they are real crystals though..although if you didnt know anything about crystals you wouldn't know the difference without looking for it. I found one of the crystals had a side that was all bubbly which leads me to believe these are made from resin possibly. Something that you pour and can get bubbles. They feel to heavy to just be plastic. The sizes are good. They are mostly convincing. The specific string of them i got had 44 crystals on them. So i would say thats around how many you will get from a 15 inch string of them. I really love that they come on a string with predrilled holes. That really opens up the uses for them because you dont have to just use glue then. The color is pretty good on the one i got. Overall they work so perfect for the crafts i plan to use them on that i ordered 2 more in differemt colors. Hopefully they show up consistently as good. Also the finish on this specific color was mostly crystal like. Definitely will buy more if the next 2 come in with similar quality.

Fake
This was a counterfeit item. I was sold plastic rocks, while the listing said natural quartz crystal. I had to get a refund.

Not as vibrant as photo
Not as vibrant as photo shown, the crystals were large and nicely shaped, but its more like clear quartz with a faint sheen of color than true titanium plated quartz. There is no metallic sheen. Overall I'm disappointed.

small, but bright and clear - great for jewelry or other DIY projects
I bought two of these raw quartz crystal spike strands for a rather unusual purpose - to create a hat band. I got the idea from another person on Amazon, who had purchased a strand of these stones in turquoise, then tied them around the neck of a large raku vase. It looked so nice, I thought I'd try it on my hat -- and if I didn't like it, I could always liven up a vase, or give the crystals to my daughter (who makes jewelry). As you can see from the hat, I think it won't look good unless I remove the existing ribbon.All that said, I love these stones and think they're gorgeous. I like the natural stones without the AB or other finishes. These are small, and I think they'll be amazing for those who make jewelry. I'm going to continue to experiment with home DIY projects. I thought these might look good draped on the shade of a glass lamp, or adding to a beaded shade.Bottom line: I like these, I can think of a thousand uses for them. The crystals are small, but very bright and clear. I highly recommend them. I hope I've been helpful!

"Rough" crystal points are reeeeal shiny...
Ordered these twice because I thought maybe I ordered wrong or there was a mix up the first time around. I had wanted the clear quartz with the rough finish, and both times recieved very shiny polished looking stones. I'm not sure if this is their idea of rough but I see rough as being a stone looking very natural looking, without a glossy shine. These were extremely glossy/shiny and really came off as unnatural- like, very ice-cubey.My own expectations aside, If shiny's your thing, than these are decent stones- there a good size, have a nice selection of sizes, and the shape is nice. Very few were too thin or short fat and shapeless, and the majority had the classic crystal point shape.4 stars for overall crystal shape and variety2 stars for calling crazy shiny crystals "rough"

Not worth the risk....
I purchased the black titanium 9/4/17... the finish is less than stellar. Many of the points are broken. There are small portions on most of the crystals that are completely unfinished (clear original color) and only a very small percentage of the total strand has the nice iridescent 'aura' finish. They do appear to be real crystal and not glass as another review suggested. Roughly 90% of the strand is not jewelry quality and unusable. For these reasons I would not purchase these again, and my 3-star rating is generous.

Nothing like picture, broken abused
I have purchased from Sunyik before and the quality was nice. But i was extremely disappointed with this purchase. The crystals were very broken and mangled. Hardly any of the beads had actual points. Definitely not worth the money. Included a picture of several beads from the strand. The color is pretty, but the quality is not.
