Himalayan Quartz refers to quartz crystals originating from the Himalayan mountain range, a region with complex geological activity. These crystals, found in various formations and sizes, exhibit clear to milky white coloration and may contain unique inclusions. The mining of Himalayan Quartz involves extracting crystals from the high-altitude regions of the Himalayas, often requiring careful and manual extraction methods due to the challenging terrain.

Believed by some to possess powerful energy, Himalayan Quartz is associated with enhancing meditation, promoting clarity, and balancing energy centers. Its association with the pristine Himalayan environment adds to its metaphysical significance.

This is a very desirable crystal, it's clear and very showy on both sides of the matrix. Mined by hand, Himalayan Quartz Crystals are found at altitudes of 10,000 to 15,000 feet, high up in the Himalayan Mountains in an area near the border of Tibet and Nepal. These deposits might be the oldest deposits known in the world. The locals believe that these crystals are the “Eyes of God “ and that they hold the knowledge and wisdom of all past yogis and saints of the Buddhist and Hindu traditions. These crystals are carried on their backs by sherpas for great distances over and down the mountain trails to reach civilization.

Due to these facts, very few crystals ever reach the marketplace so they are much sought after by collectors.

Himalayan Quartz Crystals are a stone of power, amplifying energy and intention; they raise one’s consciousness towards enlightenment. The crystals help to shield one from negativity and aid in accessing past and future lives and realities.

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

These are cabinet-sized Hourglass Selenite Crystals from Salt Plains, Oklahoma.  Oklahoma designated the unique hourglass selenite crystal as the official state crystal in 2005 after elementary school students from Bryant and Red Oak School petitioned the state legislature.  Hourglass selenite crystals are found only on the salt plains of Oklahoma, a unique 11,000-acre geological area. The salt plains were formed by repeated flooding by sea water millions of years ago.

Selenite (hydrous calcium sulfate) is a crystallized form of gypsum, a common mineral in sedimentary environments that can take on a great variety of crystal forms and shapes. Crystals take on the characteristics of their environment - iron oxide in the soil gives the hourglass crystals their chocolate brown color.

Hourglass Selenite is thought to amplify energies, aid in achieving balance and harmony, and align the crown chakra. Its protective qualities are believed to ward off negativity, and it is often used to enhance communication and promote emotional stability.

The weight and dimensions of the glass pieces are as follows:
