Red Hematoid Quartz Tumbled Chips - 5-7 mm

These Red Hematoid Quartz Tumbled Chips are small, polished irregular pieces of transparent to translucent quartz carrying red-brown hematite inclusions. Sold as loose chips by weight, each batch differs, with unique inclusion patterns, natural surface character, and internal red-brown tones inherent to the material. Their small size suits crafts, bottles, grids, and decorative fill.

Hematoid Quartz is traditionally associated with Protection and Grounding, pairing the grounding of hematite with the amplifying character of quartz. It is commonly kept for Clarity and Focus and used to stay grounded while thinking clearly.

Because this is a natural material, the inclusion patterns and colour vary batch to batch, so the chips you receive will be uniquely their own.

Geological Information
Red Hematoid Quartz forms when iron-oxide inclusions become encapsulated within quartz during crystal growth. Quartz is composed of silicon dioxide and has a Mohs hardness of 7, making it durable for decorative use and regular handling, while the hematite, iron oxide, creates the red to red-brown colouration visible through the transparent to translucent body as wisps, clouds, or concentrated patches. The inclusions are entirely natural, not a surface coating or stain, and no two pieces share the same inclusion pattern. Principal sources include Brazil and Madagascar, with the material occurring wherever hematite is present in quartz-bearing deposits.

AuturaSol Standard
Each natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity. Natural variations in colour, structure, inclusions, and surface features are inherent to geological materials and contribute to the individuality of each piece. Any known treatments, enhancements, stabilization, or man-made characteristics are clearly disclosed within the product information where applicable. Every piece is inspected and photographed to reflect its true character; however, lighting conditions, screen settings, and natural variation may cause slight differences in appearance. If you have any questions about a piece before completing your purchase, we're always here to help. Where authenticity meets beauty, we tell you exactly what you're holding.
