Small, natural blue quartz chips in a soft, cool blue. The 0.5–1.5 cm size is ideal for decorative jars, crystal collections or styling a space.
The stone of blue quartz
Blue quartz is the bluish variety of quartz, its colour created by tiny blue mineral inclusions; its Mohs hardness is around 7. Its soft, serene blue is a restful sight. In crystal lore it is known as a stone of calm and clear self-expression, and tradition links it with the throat chakra and composed, articulate communication.
Character and finish
These chips are raw, natural pieces, so every chip is unique: shade, shape and size may vary slightly from the photo. That is not a flaw but the nature of a genuine mineral. Pieces typically range between 0.5 and 1.5 cm.
Ways to use it
Blue quartz chips look lovely in a jar, in a crystal corner or on a desk, and are popular for craft projects too. Their cool blue lends a clean, calm mood to a room.
Care and good to know
This is a durable mineral (Mohs hardness around 7), yet it is worth protecting from knocks and abrasive surfaces. Now and then you can rinse it under lukewarm water and pat it dry with a soft cloth. To protect the colour, keep it away from prolonged, strong sunlight.
