Natural Super Smoky Quartz Pebble
The smoky quartz at Enter the Earth is one of the stones that had me enthusiastically handing in my resume for consideration over 4 years ago. When I went into the store, I noticed right away that their smoky quartz was natural. I mean... it had not been "treated" to make it darker by ~irradiating~ it. Out of all the stone treatments out there, I think irradiation offends me the most and makes me the most hostile. Smoky quartz is routinely exposed to flippin radiation in order to make it darker, and therefore, more valuable in the eyes of most sellers.
The smoky quartz we get from Madagascar is completely natural. These pebbles have been hand-polished (not tumbled), but otherwise... nada has been done to them.
These babies are, what I like to call, "ridiculously smoky". They look black from any length away, but the natural smokies will always be a little see through if you put them next to a light. This level of darkness saturation in a natural smoky is almost not done. Smoky quartz is probably stone number one for grounding, stability, added protection, and clearing your field of things that ought not be there. If you don't have a juicy natural "ridiculously smoky" specimen in your collection yet, this would be a good opportunity.
A stock photo is used, but I really do my best to get a representative group. You will receive ONE of these pebbles. They measure approximately 1 3/4 x 1 1/2 x 1" and weigh approximately 1.75 oz.
