About this product
Heavier than it looks, it sits dense and cool in the palm for a long moment before it takes on the warmth of your hand. Hold it to the light and faint threads of rutile catch inside like static, while the color deepens from clear at the tip to a dense root-beer brown at the base.
This eight-sided point was cut from Brazilian rock crystal that darkened naturally through long exposure to trace radiation deep in its granite bed, the same process a lapidary can now reproduce in hours. This piece is untreated, stone as it came out of the ground, slightly rough where it broke free of the vein, with its base polished flat so it stands on its own.
Smoky quartz has long been kept as an anchor stone, in pockets and on windowsills, by people who wanted the day to feel less like it was pulling them in six directions at once. Old custom holds it near the feet, on the belief that a dark, heavy stone draws restless energy down and out, the way a lightning rod draws down a storm.
