AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Premium smoked quartz
23Kg with stand

a centerpiece for your interior decoration. A piece of smoked quartz that will attract the attention of your guests or your colleagues.

The vast majority of minerals and stones in the world take their names from the mineralogist who discovered them, from the locality where they were first found, or in reference to a color.

There are several hypotheses about the origin of the word "Quartz". The first would be that it derives from the word "quaterz", meaning "bad ore", invented in the 1600s.

The second hypothesis suggests that smoked quartz would derive from the German word "qewärz", which means "growth", in reference to the shape of the crystals.

Smoked quartz, formerly "fumé", takes its name from its brown-brown color, linked to natural irradiation.

There are 2 particular varieties of smoked quartz, morion quartz, whose natural irradiation is particularly pronounced, and Cairngorm, discovered in the mountains of the same name, in Scotland, yellow to brown.
