Three beautiful dusty smoky quartz capped in sterling silver. (Price is for one)

Smoky quartz is a grounding and protective stone, recognized for its deep, earthy tones and steady, comforting energy. It is believed to absorb negativity, release emotional blockages, and help you stay rooted in the present moment. Often seen as a bridge between the physical and spiritual realms, smoky quartz offers calm, clarity, and resilience, supporting you through times of transformation and inner healing.

I have sometimes described these stones as a pal who walks beside you with their hand on your shoulder.

Capped in silver because it is a loyal loyal metal. It has calming Yin energy, and is intrinsically linked to the moon—hence its crescent alchemical symbol. The Incas referred to it as “Tears of the Moon,” and throughout history, silver has been associated with numerous goddesses connected to lunar energies: Artemis, Mawu, Cerridwen, Hecate, Sina, Diana, the High Priestess, Selene, Bendis, Coyolxauhqui, Ch’ang-o, and Ix Chel, to name just a few.
