Smoky Quartz is a naturally smoky variety of quartz, typically translucent brown to grey. It measures 7 on the Mohs hardness scale. Natural quartz darkened by natural radiation in the ground.

Smoky quartz is the national gem of Scotland. Its colour ranges from pale tea-brown to almost black (called morion).

Size: approximately 11cm. Natural material varies slightly in size, colour and markings.

## Traditions (belief, not health claims)

The obelisk shape echoes the monuments of ancient Egypt, which pointed toward the sun. In Scotland, smoky quartz is known as cairngorm after the mountains where it was found, and it was set into kilt pins and sgian-dubh. In modern practice it is associated with grounding and steadiness. In modern crystal tradition smoky quartz is linked with the root chakra and with Capricorn and Sagittarius. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim.

## How to use

- Stand it upright on a flat base or altar.
- Some people set a point on a written intention or in a crystal grid.
- It pairs traditionally with black tourmaline or clear quartz.
- Placement idea: a windowsill that catches the morning light (but not harsh midday sun) shows off colour and inclusions beautifully.
- Desk idea: keep it beside your keyboard as a cue to pause, breathe and look away from the screen for a moment.
- Bedside idea: some people hold a stone for a minute before sleep and set one small intention for the next day.

## Care

- Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away; skip soaps, salt and long soaks.
- Protect the tip from knocks; store it upright or wrapped.
