Smokey Quartz Crystal
Smokey Quartz Crystal
Smokey Quartz is a form of Quartz, Silicon Dioxide, and owes its color to gamma irradiation and the presence of traces of aluminum present in the earth. Energetically, it is said to be one of the most grounding & clearing stones available, both purifying & protecting. It is associated with the Root chakra (energy center). I like to think of it as a nervous system reset. Energy healers believe it to be great for anxiety & calming nerves. It can fade over long periods of time in direct sunlight.
These gorgeous crystals are from Brazil, where it was dug up from the earth, their bases were cut so they can sit upright. Labeled A-D, with pieces in order from left to right. They range in size from 2.25-3 inches in height. Please see photo and video for quality - A does have a tiny chip on the tip.
