Stunning! Optically Clear Quartz Crystal Point Mineral Specimen Rock Optically clear Quartz rock crystal from Brazil. Absolutely gorgeous-this looks like ice! Quartz is one of the most abundant minerals on earth. It is found on every continent, and just about every country. It has a hardness of 7. Quartz occurs in many formations, both massive and crystals. Quartz has long been the subject of spiritual beliefs and folklore. Crystal balls brought back by the Crusaders where believed to possess magical powers. In fact, the name crystal comes from the Greek word for "ice", as it was believed that rock crystal was eternally frozen. Optically clear does not mean it has no inclusions. It means that the crystal is not milky or cloudy at all. This beauty is 3.5 inches tall, 1.75 inch deep and 2.5 inches wide. It has 6 faceted sides. It weighs 410 grams. It has a few tiny inclusions, in the bottom-that look like tiny bubbles floating up and a few small floaters throughout. Plus one small one on the edge of what I'd call the front top plane. But it is very, very clear, and a really nice piece! Metaphysical properties: Clear Quartz from Brazil is said to have an incredible variety of energies and forms. It is used to structure, store, amplify, focus, transmit and transform energy, which includes thoughts, emotions and information. E-mail a friend about this item. | |||||||||||||||
