Faden Quartz with Display Card

At Namaste Bookshop you will find this crystal, Faden Quartz with Display Card (shop SKU SSFQ84).

Faden quartz is quartz with a white, thread-like zone (the 'faden') running through the crystal, a mark of how it grew after the host rock was pulled apart. Pakistan is a well-known source. In crystal traditions, faden quartz is associated with connection and with mending. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

It comes with a display card. Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed.

• SKU: SSFQ84
