Blue Smoke Quartz in Rare Dow Formation from Original Milton Mine Find, 155g, Water Clear with Blue Mist Phantom, Santander, Colombia R872
$54.00
This superb Blue Smoke Quartz comes from the original 2017 find at the Milton Mine, Santander, Colombia.
Sometimes also referred to as "Blue Mist" Quartz, these crystals are named for the nebulous phantoms that appear in the center of many of them, which are considered to be a product of their natural opalescence and not a mineral inclusion. These Blue Smoke crystals are *incredibly* clear and carry a similar energy to that of Lemurian Quartz crystals, with a very high vibration and a peaceful energy. The calming energetic quality may be attributed to the inclusion of Cookeite, a rare, Lithium-rich form of Chlorite.
ABOUT THIS CRYSTAL
The finest of the fine from this unparalleled original find! This is an exceptional, classic Blue Smoke Quartz point with water clear clarity in the main facet area and a billowy "cloud" of ghostly mist hovering just beneath all the way down to the base. This piece has some mild golden Cookeite speckling at the base and if you look closely, you'll see that it's Double Terminated (see Photo 5).
What is perhaps most special about this piece is that it is a rare Dow Formation with alternating 7 and 3-sided main facets (see more on this formation below). On one of the 7-sided facets, the short base edges are *very* small, but we still count 7!
Excellent termination as well to this beautiful crystal.

FORMATION
A Dow Crystal is one that has a termination with three perfect triangle facets, separated by three seven-sided facets. This special crystal manifests perfect geometry in the termination, alternating between triangles and seven-sided faces. It is a combination of the Channelling crystal and the Transmitter crystal, but serves an even greater purpose than the combined effects.
The Dow crystal, existing in its state of perfection, is a most valuable tool to work with in the actualization of Christ Consciousness upon this earth. It allows access to the records relating to each question or thought and, even without focussing, provides intuitive awareness in all situations. It can be used to express the deepest inner truth, as well as being capable of receiving, containing, and projecting programmed information. It is the crystal for creativity and service to humanity through both spiritual and mystical pursuits.
The energy of Double Terminated crystals flows in both directions at once, and can draw or transmit energy through both ends. These doubly powerful crystals are very useful in healing because they can move energy in two directions at the same time and can act as a bridge between two energy points. They’re useful in unblocking negative energy and are an excellent all around balancing tool.

ABOUT BLUE SMOKE QUARTZ
Blue Smoke Quartz are named for the faint-blue, nebulous phantoms that appear in the center of many of them, which are due to the natural opalescent qualities of the crystal (also known as "girisol effect"). The phantoms appear more cloudy white at first, but when exposed to light, they start to appear a very pale gray-blue.
These Blue Smoke crystals carry a very similar energy to that of Lemurian Quartz crystals, with a very high vibration and a very calming and yet divine energy. Because they are a very new find, their properties are still being revealed and discovered, but from our recent work with them, they feel ideal for purification of ones energy field, deep meditation (connection to self) and connecting with Spirit Guides/Divine Energies.
These crystals have a very unique calming quality to them, and are also ideal for healing anxiety, obsessive thoughts and sleep disorders. This is likely due to the inclusion of Cookeite, a rare, Lithium-rich form of Chlorite, which brings a calming and serene energy to these crystals.
ABOUT PHANTOM CRYSTALS
Phantom Crystals occur when another mineral settles on the main crystal itself. The crystal begins to grow again, around the mineral deposit, leaving the appearance of a ghost-like "phantom" inside.
The Phantoms within a crystal provide an indication of the experiences, and the transformations, which the crystal has encountered during its evolution. The Phantom crystal has experienced numerous lifetimes of learning and “being”, while continuing in the same physical configuration. This crystal is a reminder that we, too, can grow beyond our expectations, and are protected during times of new growth. The crystal represents the many phases and the many types of life which may be experienced during ones lifetime.
The Phantom crystal can assist in connecting with the higher realms of knowledge within the records of ones progression through past lives. In addition, it will provide further energy in healing the emotional and physical situations which may be of consequence to the knowledge gained from this regression. The Phantom can be used to assist in meeting and communicating with our personal spiritual guide. It is one of the earth stones and symbolizes universal awareness and can be used for redemption and cleansing of the earth.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I be sure the kuripe I ordered will fit?
We have sold many kuripes and tepis over the years and very rarely have had one returned because of fit. Our designs are nearly universal and designed to fit just about everyone.
That said, we always suggest that once you receive your kuripe to "try it on" without hapé first to ensure a good fit. If you find it is not a good fit, please contact us and we'll work out a return or exchange (*please be sure you do this before you actually use it with hapé, because once it has been used, we are not able to accept returns for hygienic reasons).
If you have special sizing requests or you're not sure what you need, just ask and we'll be happy to help you!
I saw your Kuripe listings on another marketplace (Ali Baba, etc) with the same photos from your shop listings. The prices were really cheap! Do you sell there as well?
No! Our only online presence is our Etsy shop and on Instagram and Facebook.
If you're seeing our EXACT listing photos and copy for goods (specifically Kuripes or Tepis) on Ali Baba (or elsewhere), for impossibly low prices, please know THIS IS NOT US and it is a scam.
We work hard to protect our Intellectual Property (photos/copy) but it can be nearly impossible in this day and age with sites like Ali Baba, whose platform makes it difficult to file IP complaints, and which is overrun by scammers.
If you're ever in doubt, please reach out to us here!
One caveat is that we do offer our HanaqPacha sprays to some great independent resellers, so please continue to support them!
Can I return or exchange my item?
We do our best to accommodate all customer requests. We accept returns and exchanges for items that are not as described, do not fit, or are damaged.
We unfortunately cannot accept returns or exchanges for items that the buyer "does not connect with energetically" or "changes their mind" about after the fact. This is unfortunately a risk one takes purchasing metaphysical items online.
We also cannot accept returns or exchanges on products like used kuripes for hygienic reasons, or sprays that have been used/tested.
However if you received a product that does not fit, does not work, is not as described, or is otherwise problematic -- excluding the exemptions we've indicated here -- contact us & we will do our best to rectify it for you.
Are your indigenous items "Fair Trade"?
Yes!!! 100%!
One of the main reasons we began HanaqPacha was to support the communities that have helped us so much with their healing, their culture, their medicines, their hospitality. Now, we work with many artisans in Peru and Brazil (and Indonesia, and beyond)... and do our best to support them, their families and their local economies by purchasing their wares at the most fair prices possible.
Your business helps us expand our global "family" even more, commissioning more unique works by our friends both at home and abroad.
I provided an incorrect address for my order, what do I do?
If you provide an incorrect shipping address & catch it right after ordering, simply message us to let us know. If it’s caught right away there is usually no problem in updating the shipping address before we ship.
However, please understand that you, the buyer, are responsible for providing an accurate shipping address for your order. If you do not provide an accurate shipping address, we cannot be responsible for rerouting a parcel once it has left our hands.
If an item is returned due to an incorrect shipping address that you provided, we can reship, but will need to charge for the reshipping fees. This can get expensive and time-consuming. So please take a few seconds before submitting your order to ensure that all info is correct.
Any pro tips for a smooth transaction?
Yes! We ask only two things of our customers: 1.) Please read the entire item description before ordering and 2.) Please respect our shop and policies.
Most customer issues arise because someone did not read the item description or store policies. We spend a lot of time including DETAILED descriptions of each item, as well as at least 8 photos of each item. We do this to ensure our customers' satisfaction. However the one catch is that you need to read the information we provide so you can make an informed decision, to ensure that you will receive the exact thing you are in search of.
Not doing so risks lengthy and expensive return processes which are frustrating for all. So please read the descriptions and policies prior to ordering ;)
I live in the Los Angeles area, do you offer local pickup?
No, unfortunately we are not able to offer local pickup at this time. However we do ship just about daily and orders to the LA area typically will arrive in 1-2 days once shipped (Priority Shipping is generally 1 day in most cases).
Any tips for international buyers?
Yes! One tip really: we ask that you track your item periodically via Etsy once we ship.
Many times, international items experience long delays in customs (which is normal), and sometimes parcels are "held for collection" at the local post office of the buyer and need to be picked up, or else they will be returned to seller. It is the responsibility of the buyer to stay abreast of this, so they can be sure to attend to any collection or signature required by your local post office.
If an item is returned due to non-collection, you will need to file a claim with Etsy and/or wait until the item is returned to us (which may be months) for reshipment, and then pay for reshipment.
Much easier to track and stay updated!
I received my order and there's a problem, what should I do?
Please contact us right away and we will do whatever we can to resolve the issue.
While we know the initial reaction may be to leave a negative review, please reach out to us first and give us the opportunity to help you. We're not perfect, but we do take accountability when we are at fault or when we have made an error.
We want all our customers to have a positive shopping experience with us. We have a long history of excellent customer service and can help find a solution to almost anything.
Negative reviews should really be a last resort and are rarely warranted. We prefer to find solutions so that everyone is happy.
When I track my order it says it was delivered, but I haven't received it, what do I do?!
If an item is marked as "delivered" but not received, the next step is to speak with your local post office. It could mean it was misdelivered to an incorrect address or it may be waiting at the post office for you. If you provide the tracking number to a manager at the post office they can explore.
If you do not have success with this, you can open up a case with Etsy for an item not received. Often times Etsy may directly compensate the buyer in these circumstances: help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/5745586898199-How-to-Open-a-Case-?segmen...
We're unfortunately not able to file claims for items marked as "delivered," but we do everything we can to ensure that you will either be refunded or receive your item. So please keep us updated.
