Rock crystal is a common mineral of the Earth’s crust, found in igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. To understand its name, just look at its transparency and speak a few words of Greek: it comes from krustallos, “ice”, itself derived from kryos, “frost”. In Antiquity, it was believed to be eternal ice.
The finest specimens come from Brazil, Arkansas and Herkimer in the United States, Kullu in India, Switzerland, China and Russia. It is also found in France, in the Isère and Haute-Savoie.
✦
Worked into tools as early as the Paleolithic, rock crystal was identified and named in Greece around 1500 BC, where it was engraved and carved for its beauty; a cup from that period can be seen in the museum of Athens. The Romans made bracelets, necklaces, rings and pendants from it, and in the 10th century craftsmen in Egypt carved crystal vases, one of which is kept in the treasury of Saint-Denis.
A legend tells of thirteen crystal skulls hidden around the world, whose reunion would reveal the knowledge of the world. It is still from this stone that crystal balls are cut for clairvoyance, and industry uses its piezoelectric properties in quartz watches.

Rock crystal is a quartz able to absorb, amplify and transmit a great deal of energy: it is even said to recharge all other stones. It opens the mind to new ideas, ideal for rational thinkers and stubborn people.
It promotes concentration and works on memory.
It removes energetic and emotional blockages.
It develops intuition and encourages psychic flashes.
It gives a feeling of invulnerability.
The largest known rock crystal was found in Brazil: it measures 6 × 1.5 × 1.5 m and weighs 40 tons. And when a couple celebrates 15 years of marriage, it is their crystal anniversary.
⚠️ The virtues attributed to stones come from traditions and beliefs. They are not a treatment and do not replace medical advice.

Every stone has something to offer: read up on amethyst or aventurine.
