What’s Quartz meaning?
Quartz is considered the birthstone for those born in April, and has been the Arkansas state emblem since 1967. Traditionally, the Japanese asserted that quartz signified purity and infinite space, while ancient North American and Burmese cultures considered this stone to be a living being, holding rituals for it and providing it with food.
What is it use for?
One of the most common piezoelectric uses of quartz today is as a crystal oscillator. The quartz clock is a familiar device using the mineral. The resonant frequency of a quartz crystal oscillator is changed by mechanically loading it, and this principle is used for very accurate measurements of very small mass changes in the quartz crystal microbalance and in thin-film thickness monitors
Quartz is a Mother crystal that magnifies feelings and intentions. Because of that, it can manifest love, luck, healing, and protection. Like much other quartz. Gorgeous and versatile. Naturally and ethically mined.
