History | Science

Hemipristis Serra is an extinct species of weasel shark, which existed during the Miocene Epoch, roughly 23 - 5.5 million years ago in the current-day Atlantic Ocean. It is a distant relation of the Snaggletooth Shark, however unlike its small, benign snaggletooth cousin, the Hemipristis Serra was considerably larger and more dangerous, reaching a length of around 20 feet. Fascinatingly, as a contemporary of the Megalodon, it is believed that the Hemipristis Serra was particularly talented at preying on the much-smaller pups of this apex predator.

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.
