Smoke Quartz is Scotland’s national gem, a country known for its rich history and mystical lore. The ancient celts started to mine Smokey Quartz at Cairngorm Mountains in the Scottish highlands, naming the yellow-brown to greyish-brown crystals Cairngorm and the darker bark brown to black gemstone Morion. Both are common tradenames for Scottish Smoke Quartz today. Smoke Quartz is often seen in traditional Highlander apparel, as weaponry adornments, on kilt pins and shoulder brooches.
In 1837 J. S. Dana introduced the word “Smoky Quartz” to the gem world, naming the stone after its colour similarities to smoke. During the Victorian era, Smoke Quartz was common in Mourning jewellery.
