Smoky Quartz Healing Properties

Fantastic AAA quality Smoky Quartz hearts! Each one was hand selected for beauty and most of them have rainbow dancing inside them. All of them are translucent, some are a light brown like the photo, while others are a vibrant chocolate brown. Smoky Quartz is a grounding stone that helps us feel centered and balanced, rather than heavy. It helps us to see the situations around us accurately and to make practical decisions that serve the highest good. Smoky Quartz hearts are an especially good choice when we're going through a hard time and our heart needs a steady source of strength.

Lapidary / Gem Dealer

This lapidary hand polishes stones in Antananarivo, Madagascar. It is a woman-owned and family-run business. Factory workers have safe conditions and are paid fairly. The lapidary sells primarily at one major gem show in the United States. Every year the lapidary takes on a major charity project at a rural school. Previous projects have included installing bathrooms, creating a playground, and building a sunshelter for parents.

Sourcing Relationship

I first met the owner of the lapidary at the 2006 Gem and Mineral show in Tucson, Arizona. At that time I was working for a crystal shop in Utah and was at Tucson primarily as a “pack mule” to help carry all the stones. It was generally agreed by our crew that the “Madagascar” tent contained the most beautiful stones in the entire show.

In 2014, I embarked on my first buying trip for Moonrise Crystals. The company I knew of only as “Madagascar” was the one company I was most determined to find and buy from. This lapidary company only sells at a handful of major gem shows. The only time they are in the USA is for the Tucson Gem Show. During the rest of the year, the lapidary hand polishes their stock and also does charity work in their local community. They continue to offer some of the most beautiful tumbled stones in the industry and are among my favorite suppliers.

In 2019, Moonrise Crystals and the Madagascar lapidary company joined together to financially support a rural school in Madagascar. In 2022, we plan to build a library with books in Malagassi and French.

Smoky Quartz is the grey, brown or black variety of Quartz, if it slightly golden-brown, it is nicknamed “Whiskey Quartz.” While other crystals are colored by trace minerals, Smoky Quartz has a unique geological influence – natural irradiation that occurs under ground.

It is highly recommended as a talisman for cancer patients, particularly those undergoing chemotherapy. […]
