A cabochon cut quartz refers to a particular style of cutting and shaping a quartz gemstone. The term "cabochon" (pronounced kah-buh-shawn) comes from the French word "caboche," which means a small dome or rounded shape. In this type of cut, the quartz is shaped into a smooth, convex form with a flat back and a rounded or domed top. Unlike faceted gemstones, which have multiple flat surfaces and angles, cabochons have a curved surface that showcases the stone's natural color, patterns, and inclusions. The smoothness of the cabochon cut gives the gemstone a polished and glossy appearance. Quartz is a popular material for cabochons due to its abundance and wide range of colors and varieties. Some common types of quartz used for cabochons include clear quartz, rose quartz, amethyst, citrine, and smoky quartz. Cabochon-cut quartz gems are often used in jewelry, such as pendants, earrings, rings, and bracelets, and they can be set in various metals or combined with other gemstones to create unique designs.

A quartz clock works similarly, but the quartz oscillator is used to control the speed of a motor.
