Smokey Quartz
Smokey quartz, a captivating brownish-grey gem, is a variation of quartz. Its smoky hues arise from natural irradiation and trace elements trapped within the crystal during its formation in igneous, metamorphic or sedimentary rocks. This material is quite hard, making it perfect for jewellery and carvings.
Beyond geology, smoky quartz is a grounding stone in the spiritual realm. Believed to absorb negativity and anxieties, it promotes emotional balance and a sense of calm. Some cultures associate it with detoxification and spiritual cleansing. Smoky quartz is said to connect wearers to the present moment, fostering a sense of security and stability.
