A personal meaning for a darker palette
The gray-to-brown color of smoky quartz can be selected for a subdued decorative palette. A person may also connect it with steadiness or reflection. That symbolic use is chosen by the person; it does not mean the stone removes unwanted influences or changes a physical or emotional state.
Color Variations
Smoky quartz ranges from light gray to deep brown.
Personal symbolism
In contemporary crystal symbolism, smokey quartz is associated with steadiness and reflection. These are personal or cultural associations. Someone may choose a piece as a reminder of those values, without expecting the material to produce a physical or emotional effect.
Before choosing a piece
Read the stated material, dimensions and construction of the actual item. Keep the care directions for its setting, cord or other components as well as the stone. Store finished pieces so that they do not strike one another, and choose a stable location for decorative objects.
