Small, natural milky quartz chips in a soft, milky white. The 0.5–1.5 cm size is ideal for decorative jars, crystal collections or styling a space.
The stone of milky quartz
Milky quartz is the milky-white variety of quartz, its veiled look created by countless tiny fluid and gas inclusions within the crystal; its Mohs hardness is around 7. Its soft, hazy white feels warm and gentle. In crystal lore it is sometimes called the crystal of ‘white wisdom’, and tradition links it with nurture, trust and inner growth.
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
Milky quartz chips look lovely in a jar, in a crystal corner or on a shelf, and are popular for craft projects too. Their soft, veiled white creates a gentle, homely mood.
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.
