Sceptre Quartz Crystals #1 measures approximately 1 5/8" to 2 5/16" (42mm to 58mm) and weighs .4 to 1.0 ounces (10.5 to 25.5 grams). These are a bit unusual. They have a white coating like the Candle Quartz from Madagascar that I have. These are lovely Sceptres, and the termination faces are quite unusual. Please let me pick one for you. These are $8.00 USD each.

Sceptre Quartz is a crystal that has been pierced by a crystal rod. They come from Lemuria and Atlantis and were used in healing rites. These were often carried by a high priest or priestess. Adapted in a non-crystal form by European royalty much later in time, the Sceptre was often carried by kings and queens as a symbol of power.
Sceptre Quartz brings the higher spiritual plane energy into healing rites today, too. This crystal cuts to the chase--gets to the heart of the matter so that healing can occur on all levels; in all bodies.
