Scientific Facts
Quartz is also known as Crystal Quartz or Rock Crystal. It is colorless or white, a natural form of silicon dioxide. It is a very durable and hard stone at 7 Mohs, making it ideal for jewelry but difficult to work with for carving. Quartz can be found all over the world and has fascinated people since the dawn of humanity. Nearly every culture on earth has used quartz for magical purposes throughout history and it is the origin of the famous "crystal ball" used for divination.
Metaphysical Properties
Quartz is known as the "master healer" and will amplify energy and thought, as well as the effect of other crystals. It is said to absorb, store, release and regulate energy. This crystal is supposed to draw off negative energy of all kinds and is believed to balance and revitalize the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual planes, connecting the physical dimension with the mind. Quartz is also said to enhance psychic abilities, aids concentration, and unlock memory.
In general, quartz is the most fundamental crystal to have. Wearing it as an amulet is a great way to boost your energy, as humans have done for millennia.
About our Upcycled Jewelry
Upcycled jewelry is made from old/used jewelry that has been saved from thrift stores or private collection. We try to test all pieces to the best of our abilities. Stones may be lab created or otherwise enhanced - they are identical in their crystal formation so our devices cannot tell the difference.
With your purchase, you are not only getting an ethically sourced piece of jewelry from a small business but also giving your piece new life and helping to save many more from a landfill.
Disclaimer: Upcycled gold tone jewelry may contain nickel and may tarnish faster. Apply a layer of jewelry coating or clear nail polish on the side that touches skin for protection and to and increase its longevity.
