Druzy The Glitter Stone

Druzy Stone

Druzy Stone

Druzy Quartz (also spelt as Drusy or Druse) is a thin layer of quartz crystals covering the surface of a host stone. One good example of Druzy is the crystals filled inside the cavity of a geode.

The term “Druzy” refers to the tiny crystal which is formed within of on another stone in a large number.

The appeal of drusy material is easy to understand with its multitude of tiny crystals providing a reflective surface reminiscent of sugar or snow. Most non-quartz species of drusy gems, even those with vivid colors like hot pink (cobalto-calcite), day glow green (uvarovite), or multi-color (rainbow pyrite ) are natural.

Naturally colored quartz drusy is found almost exclusively in muted colors such as white, grey, tan and cream. Many quartz pieces, though, are dyed black or other vivid colors such as purple, red, green and blue, and some are coated with titanium or other metallic vapor which creates various iridescent finishes.

Druzy Titanium or Druzy plated with Titanium is a regular Druzy. The colors of Druzy Titanium are very hot and intensely bright. It shifts from a bright hot purple to that of a neon deep blue with some shade of red. The colors of Druzy Titanium differ with the change in the viewing angles.

Druzy Quarts is said to aid in balancing and increasing energy. Since ages it has been used to diagnose disease and is believed to enhance natural extrasensory perception abilities.
