Quartz, Green, Raw
Product Details
Size: roughly 1/2"- 1"
Green Quartz, also known as Prasiolite or Vermarine, is a beautiful gemstone
with a translucent to transparent body and a range of green hues. The color can
vary from a pale, almost lime green, to a deeper forest green. Green Quartz is
a relatively rare stone in its natural state, and most green Quartz on the
market today is actually low-grade heat-treated amethyst. (not here though)
Natural Green Quartz comes from a small number of locations around the
world, with the primary source being a mine in Brazil. Deposits have also been
found in Poland and Canada, but these are much smaller. The rarity of natural Green
Quartz contributes to its value, and it can be a stunning substitute for more
expensive gemstones like emeralds.
Metaphysical properties are beliefs that have been associated with gemstones
for centuries. Green Quartz is believed to be a stone of peace and harmony. It
is thought to promote emotional healing and encourage feelings of compassion
and forgiveness. Some people also believe that Green Quartz can stimulate
creativity and help to manifest positive intentions.
