Scientific Information: The term "Morion" is used to describe black quartz, which is known for its deep black color. This name is derived from the Latin word "morum," which means "dark”. Black Quartz often exhibits its dark coloration due to the presence of inclusions, trace elements, or structural changes within the crystal lattice. The black color is frequently a result of natural radiation that induces changes in the quartz’s crystal system, causing the formation of color centers. These color centers are imperfections or irregularities in the crystal structure that absorb light, resulting in the quartz's black appearance. In some cases, the color may also be enhanced by the presence of mineral inclusions such as iron or carbon.
Photos: The photos are taken in a dedicated setup with strong lighting. We strive to ensure that the color of the specimens is not altered. However, it is recommended to keep the minerals in well-lit places to fully appreciate their color.
Crystal Therapy: Black Quartz is believed to offer grounding and protective qualities in crystal therapy. It is thought to absorb and transmute negative energy, providing stability and support during times of change. This quartz is often used in meditation and healing practices to enhance one's connection to the earth and to protect against energetic disturbances.
Shipping: Shipping is typically carried out the following day with tracking and careful attention to packaging. Shipments from the same customer will be consolidated, and excess shipping costs will be refunded within the package or through other means, as previously agreed upon.
