This is an A quality Brazilian Quartz Crystal that has been cut and polished in the style of a Vogel wand. This is the 24-sided variant. Absolutely beautiful, and totally mesmerizing! It has been here charging with Synergy for 4+ years now. It has a high level of clarity throughout, with just a handful of lighter veil inclusions/patterns mixed in for contrast - including a shimmery rainbow that shows up in the wider point as you move the stone around in your hands. The photos show different angles of the same piece. You are receiving ONE (1) piece - the exact one shown in the photos.
There may be a couple organic spots or teeny tiny empathy dings here and there. If present, they do not affect the beauty or energy of the stone, and the price has been adjusted accordingly. I inspect each piece very carefully before photographing it. Much nicer 'in person' than the photos can show! Check out how it works with subtle energies below.
It weighs about 2.1oz and measures about 3 1/8" inches long by 7/8" inch wide at the widest point. Code-112124-251
The Vogel cut crystal is named after Marcel Vogel who designed the very precise cuts on quartz so that it acts as a very efficient, almost laser like focusing tool. When used with intention and unconditional love, this shape can really focus your energy for healing work or anything that you are working on transforming. This piece is not an actual Vogel, rather it is cut in the Vogel pattern. An original Vogel crystal is cut extremely precisely, and would cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. However, I think you will find that this crystal is a great tool in its own right!
Quartz is often said to be the crystal or "stone" that everyone needs to start with. Quartz is the most recognized type of crystal and is what many people think of when they hear the word crystal - although there are many, many different types of crystals in all kinds of stones.
Quartz can be as clear as ice (ancients called quartz ‘Holy Ice’ and thought that it came from the heavens) or milky white.
It can have inclusions, veils, bubbles, unusual formations, etc.
Clarity is not important for a quartz crystals energetic quality and in fact, inclusions and impurities can make the crystal more energetic and increase it’s ability to amplify subtle energies. Without a few 'imperfections, the energy is often not as intense. Lab crystals are grown with impurities on purpose and depending on the type and placement, will change the frequency that the crystal oscillates at.
