Who picks this one
Pick this one if you are sceptical and would rather have a plain, colourless, well-cut object than a symbol. Sphatik has been in Indian households for centuries and needs no interpretation from us. It is also the safe choice if you are giving a stone to someone whose views on all of this you do not actually know.
What it actually is
Clear quartz is silicon dioxide with nothing much else in it, and it is piezoelectric: squeeze it and it produces a voltage; apply a voltage and it flexes. Cut correctly it vibrates at a rate stable enough to keep time, which is why a quartz crystal sits inside almost every watch and radio made since the 1920s. That is engineering, not metaphysics, and it is worth separating from what people say about wearing it. Mohs 7. Called sphatik in India.
Where it sits in the tradition
Sphatik is one of the stones named in the classical lists as an uparatna for heera (diamond), the stone of Shukra, along with white sapphire and white zircon.
Which stone applies to you, if any does, comes from a chart rather than from a page. A reader can look, and this is what ratna and uparatna mean.
What we will not tell you
That it will fix your money, your marriage, your case or your health. Nobody can know that, and in India advertising a remedy as a treatment is prohibited under the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954. What we will tell you is exactly what the material is, what has been done to it, and what is in the box.
Looking after it
Hard and easy. Dry cloth. Clear beads show fingerprints more than the opaque ones, which is the only real nuisance.

About this stone.
Is clear quartz the same as sphatik?
Yes. Sphatik is the Indian name for natural clear quartz.
Is glass ever sold as clear quartz?
It is, and it is hard to spot by eye in a bead. Every piece we ship carries a laboratory certificate naming the material.
