This is a beautiful, A quality, Quartz Crystal skull! It is Brazilian Quartz, carved in a new style by the same family of carvers that did my Mayan Shaman style and Baby Synergy style (both of which have since been retired). It has both high clarity areas and intricate inclusions, including some lovely shimmery areas and hints of rainbow sheen here and there that become visible from different angles as you move the stone around in your hands. Plus, a small cluster of delicate little lighter green CHLORITE inclusions in the dome of the skull on the left side (almost looks like tiny pieces of moss!). A real beauty! No flash was used in these photos. Here in Arizona, we have very bright sunlight! The photos just can't do it justice - it is much nicer 'in person', I guarantee it! Check out how it works with subtle energies below.
There are a few tiny organic spots present from inclusions that were close to the surface as the stone was polished. ALL inclusions present come from 100% natural formations in the stone.
It weighs about 2.3oz and measures about 45mm (1 3/4" inches) long X 34mm (1 5/16" inches) tall. Code19476

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 crystal's 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.
Quartz can store energy, amplify it, focus it, transmit it, transform it, balance it, absorb it… Various types and formations are better for some things than others.
Quartz in any form is a powerful stone. Quartz has long been used to direct and amplify thoughts and intentions - because all thoughts are a form of energy and intentions shape and will effect subtle energies. Because of this, it is useful for healing work, meditation, protection, and manifesting and channeling. Quartz is thought to store information of all types and make it available again for retrieval. The idea behind this is that information is just another form of an energy pattern. Quartz may be held directly on the third eye to increase the clarity of a psychic vision. Many Shamans and Crystal Healers use Quartz to perceive and communicate with other worlds, for dream work, scrying or crystal gazing, perceiving spirits and for channeling. Quartz may be used to dispel and clear negative energies. Clear quartz is associated with the crown chakra, but in the hands of someone skilled and focused, may also be used to energize all of the chakras. In Crystal Healing, Quartz is said to be effective for chronic fatigue, arthritis, depression, bone ailments and gastrointestinal troubles. It is also used to improve mental and physical stamina.
Native legends speak of crystal skulls as an inheritance from ancient times. Said to “talk and sing” they are believed to carry messages for all mankind, including what may be discovered when we overcome our fear of death.
