History | Science

Amethyst is a variety of quartz, generally ranging from pale lilac to deep, reddish purple. As with other varieties of quartz, amethyst owes its color to irradiation from surrounding rocks as well as impurities of iron and other trace minerals.
Agate is formed as silica-rich water finds its way into the cavities of igneous rocks, and over millions of years, the layers of seeping water coalesce into the beautiful, banded stone we know as agate. The colors of agate are caused by the addition of naturally-occurring impurities such as iron, manganese, aluminum, and other trace minerals.

Metaphysical Properties

We could fill a book with the positive properties that are attributed to amethyst, but at its root, amethyst is a stone of peace, calm, and unification. Agate is known for its association with courage, emotional stability, and growth. Mixed together, these properties compliment each other, creating a stone that is both grounding and inspiring!

Photography

Although we always strive to provide clear, accurate images of our crystals and other products, we photograph under professional lighting, which is meant to mimic sunlight. If you get your crystal and think it looks a little different under low or artificial light, try checking it out again in sunlight!

Our crystals are one-of-a-kind art, created by nature.

No two pieces are the same, and there is no such thing as "perfection" in nature.

When it comes to our hand-carved items, remember that artists work with and around imperfections, druzy pockets, and other natural variations to bring each carving out of a piece of natural stone.

We consider these imperfections to be one of the most wonderful parts of crystal collecting, and we invite you to embrace each carving's uniqueness!

We will always try to portray each piece honestly, so be sure to look closely at our images and videos to ensure you know what to expect.
