Snow Quartz, also known as Milky Quartz or White Quartz, is a variety of the mineral quartz that has a white or milky appearance. It gets its name from its resemblance to freshly fallen snow or a cloudy winter sky. Snow Quartz is composed of silicon dioxide and is part of the quartz family, which includes many other gemstones such as amethyst, citrine, and rose quartz.
The white colour of Snow Quartz is due to tiny fluid inclusions or gas bubbles trapped within the crystal during its formation. These inclusions scatter light, giving the quartz a translucent to opaque appearance. While Snow Quartz is predominantly white, it can sometimes exhibit hints of grey or even pale pink.
Snow Quartz is found in various locations around the world, including Brazil, India, Madagascar, and the United States. It is often used in jewellery and decorative items due to its soft and soothing appearance. Snow Quartz is also believed to have metaphysical properties and is associated with purity, clarity, and tranquillity. It is said to promote a sense of calmness, enhance meditation, and aid in spiritual growth.
In terms of care, Snow Quartz is relatively low-maintenance. It can be cleaned using mild soap and water or a gentle jewellery cleaner. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures that could damage the stone.
Whether appreciated for its aesthetic appeal or its metaphysical properties, Snow Quartz is a beautiful gemstone that adds a touch of serenity and elegance to any setting.
