    Doug, there has been a HUGE discussion on Cherry Quartz on this
    forum and many others. The vast majority of this stuff is glass. It's
    very pretty, very nicely shaped, but none the less, glass. Even in
    the most recent issue of Beadwork Magazine, there is a short blurb
    about the fact that it is glass. Most of the Strawberry Quartz is
    glass as well, but there apparently there was some authentic
    Strawberry Quartz out there at one time. The best way to determine if
    it is in fact glass is to see if there are bubbles in the clear part
    of the material. Real quartz (of any flavor) does not bubble. 

Betty
