Quartz

History

  • Quartz is one of the most important minerals on earth and represents one of the most popular groups of stones in the world of coloured stones. There are two variants of Quartz, which can be subdivided into other more specific sub-types. The two main branches of quartz are macrocrystalline quartz and cryptocrystalline quartz.

Herkimer is named after Herkimer County (USA), where such a specimen was first found in the Mohawk River Valley. There is also a new deposit in Pakistan. Herkimer Quartz is a powerful amplifier of spiritual energy and an extremely healing crystal used for meditation and visualisation. It combines the power of the Lightning Stone and Diamond. It is believed to be the most powerful of all quartz crystals. It has the ability to receive spiritual energy in addition to transmitting its own energy. It is only this that it strengthens and directs. It heals and balances all the chakras. It helps us to make clear decisions and to accept the past. It is also used to clear emotions, to promote a smooth flow of emotional life and to facilitate the release of emotional blockages caused by trauma in this and previous lives. The presence of dark hydrocarbons in the crystal contributes to the power of this stone to protect the wearer and purify the surroundings of all negative emotions by transforming negative energies into more positive frequencies.

Care

  • Quartz has relatively good hardness and durability. It is harder than other stones, but still softer than others. To clean quartz, simply use plain water and a mild soap or detergent if necessary. Wipe the stones with a soft cloth and make sure the stone is well washed to remove any soapy residue. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat and avoid large temperature fluctuations. As with most minerals, avoid the use of heat steamers and ultrasonic cleaners.
  • It is best to store stone jewellery and the stones themselves in a fabric-covered box or wrapped in cloth separately from the others to prevent damage and possible scratches. It is advisable not to wear jewellery during major physical activities such as exercise or sports. Avoid spraying perfume and hairspray directly on your jewellery and stones.
