WHY CRYSTALS
Crystals are powerful tools often incorporated into rituals for their energetic and symbolic properties.
A crystal’s atomic structure provides a steady vibrational quality and their amplitude can be increased through heat and/or pressure in certain minerals. These pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties are well known in various industries. Quartz and tourmaline have long been used for their energetic abilities in products from hair dryers to clocks and even the basic BBQ lighter - crystals are incredible energetic tools. Their subtle, and not-so-subtle, frequencies can interact with the body’s own electrical field to stabilise, ground and uplift our energy. A crystals colour also produces various vibrational frequencies from the visible spectrum, connecting with us in their own unique way.
On a psychological level, crystals serve as physical totems that help anchor intentions. Holding or focusing on a crystal during a ritual creates a tangible connection to the goals you wish to manifest, enhancing mindfulness and reinforcing positive thought patterns. Science supports the power of symbolic practices—belief and focused attention can lead to measurable changes in mental and emotional states. Additionally, engaging with crystals in a ritual can activate the reticular activating system (RAS) in the brain, increasing awareness of opportunities and aligning actions with intentions. Whether seen as tools for energy alignment or psychological focus, crystals enrich rituals by grounding intentions and supporting personal transformation.
SCIENCE
Hypersthene belongs to the orthopyroxene class and is a common rock-forming inosilicate mineral. It is found in igneous and some metamorphic rocks. It forms a solid solution series with the minerals enstatite and ferrosilite, being a mid-way member between the two. Pure enstatite contains no iron, while pure ferrosilite contains no magnesium; hypersthene is the name given to the mineral when a significant amount of both elements are present.
Known for its chatoyant sheen due to internal structures and brownish/purple hue due to iron.
MOHs hardness: 5.5-6
Crystal System: Orthorhombic
CRYSTAL CARE
Although crystals have survived hundreds of thousands to millions of years (wow) in our earth they are still delicate and must be treated with TLC.

OUR ETHICS
Yes, our crystals are ethically sourced & sold.

Ethical mining/sourcing refers to the conditions in which a crystal is unearthed and the people and/or businesses that do it. Whilst a mineral may be sourced ethically from the earth, many stones are sent to factories in other countries for cutting and polishing into spheres and generators.
The label of ethics also applies to the selling and consumer purchasing.
Crystals must be correctly identified, certified as natural with any treatments disclosed. Too often crystals are lab grown or treated in a lab and sold as natural. This is incredibly important to us (and our in-house gemmologist) so each piece is tested and certified and accompanied by and authenticity card.
We pride ourselves on our crystal ethics, from earth to home.
