You will receive the Labradorite stone of your choosing.  These beautiful and unique stones originated in Madagascar.

Labradorite is an unusual mineral. It can display a beautiful iridescent play of colors, caused by internal fractures in the mineral that reflect light back and forth, dispersing it into different colors. This effect, known as labradorescence, gives Labradorite its appeal and fame.

Prehnite can form prismatic, tabular, or pyramidal crystals, but usually occurs in botryoidal, reniform, stalactitic, granular, or compact habits.  It is usually green in colour, but may be white, colourless, yellow, or gray.  It has a colourless streak.  Prehnite is transparent to translucent, with a vitreous to pearly luster.  Prehnite forms in cavities in basaltic lavas.

Apophyllite is more often then not the star attraction and very popular among collectors for its fantastic crystals with their gem-like vitreous to pearly luster. Apophyllite almost always forms good crystals of two major types. The favorite crystal habit is the rectangular prism capped by a steep four sided pyramid. A doubly terminated crystal is exceptionally special. The faces of the pyramids are rotated 45 degrees with respect to the prism faces and so plunge down into the prism edges. This produces a diamond-shaped pyramidal face instead of a typical triangular pyramid face. The shape is an extraordinary example of tetragonal crystal form. Although normally colorless or white, colored examples of apophyllite are always treasured. Some crystals of apophyllite are cut as gems, but are mostly just for the collectors. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Apophyllite is said to promote introspection into one's own behavior and the correction of imbalances or flaws that are perceived. This is a stone of truth, bringing recognition of one's true self and allowing that to be shown to the world. Apophyllite is said to have a calming effect, and to effectively reduce stress, releasing mental blockages and negative thought patterns. Apophyllite is also said to release suppressed emotion, to overcome anxiety, worries and fears. It calms apprehensions and allows uncertainty to be tolerated.

Prehnite is said to be a stone of unconditional love and the crystal to heal the healer. Placing it in the garden is believed to help make a home into a healing sanctuary and teach one how to be in harmony with nature. A good Fung Shui stone, prehnite is said to be helpful for decluttering, helping one let go of possessions no longer needed.

Quartz crystals are among the most abundant and well-known minerals on Earth. It belongs to the hexagonal crystal system, and typically forms six-sided prismatic crystals with a pointed termination. Its crystals can be colorless or exhibit a wide range of colors. The color variations are often due to the presence of impurities or trace elements during the crystal's formation. Quartz is transparent to translucent. 

Phantom quartz is a variety of quartz, or "rock crystal", that forms over pre-existing crystals. The included crystal is visible due to some variation in composition making the boundary of the included crystal visible. Such crystals display the outlines of numerous smaller crystals, known as phantoms.  Great crystal to acquire.

This is a very desirable crystal, it's clear and very showy on both sides of the matrix. Mined by hand, Himalayan Quartz Crystals are found at altitudes of 10,000 to 15,000 feet, high up in the Himalayan Mountains in an area near the border of Tibet and Nepal. These deposits might be the oldest deposits known in the world. The locals believe that these crystals are the “Eyes of God “ and that they hold the knowledge and wisdom of all past yogis and saints of the Buddhist and Hindu traditions. These crystals are carried on their backs by sherpas for great distances over and down the mountain trails to reach civilization.

Kullu Valley is a broad open valley in Himachal Pradesh, India, formed by the Beas River between Manali and Larji. This valley is famous for its temples, According to Hindu mythology, the valley is regarded as the cradle of all humankind..

Due to these facts, very few crystals ever reach the marketplace so they are much sought after by collectors.

Himalayan Quartz Crystals are a stone of power, amplifying energy and intention; they raise one’s consciousness towards enlightenment. The crystals help to shield one from negativity and aid in accessing past and future lives and realities.

Malachite is perhaps the one of the most popular mineral for collectors due to its intense green color and sometimes beautiful banded masses. Africa contains several outstanding Malachite deposits. The mines at Katanga (Shaba), especially at Kolwezi, in the Congo (Zaire) produce Malachite in all sorts of odd shapes and forms, and are the source of the best banded, concentric, stalactitic and sparkling specimens. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

One of the distinguishing features of apophyllite is its ability to form well-defined crystals with a pyramid-like shape. These crystals often exhibit a prismatic or pseudo-cubic habit and have a vitreous luster. Apophyllite is transparent to translucent and is commonly found in colorless or white varieties, although it can also occur in shades of green, pink, yellow, or brown.

Stilbite is a zeolite mineral appreciated for its delicate crystal formations and pastel hues, ranging from colorless to white, yellow, pink, and peach.  It forms distinctive tabular crystals with a bowtie or butterfly shape and exhibits a vitreous to pearly luster. Commonly found in cavities in volcanic rocks, stilbite is associated with other zeolite minerals. It is valued for its aesthetic appeal and is believed by some to have calming energy, supporting spiritual growth and emotional healing.

This is a beautiful cluster of clear quartz crystals on a carpet of green pistacite, also known as epidote. The epidote underneath are clearly visible through the quartz. 

Pistacite is a historical term once commonly used to describe a green variety of epidote, named for its pistachio-like color. While the term is still recognized among collectors and in older literature, it has largely been replaced in modern mineralogy by the more general name green epidote.

Pistacite (green epidote) is often associated with growth, release, and emotional healing. Some believe it helps clear negative energy and encourages letting go of patterns or emotions that no longer serve you. It’s thought to support personal transformation by boosting a sense of hope and forward movement, especially during times of change or recovery.

This large specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
