Crystals: The Power To Enchant And Enhance

Beautiful and beguiling crystals have long been thought to possess the ability to heal both physically and psychologically and even though there isn’t a great deal of scientific support, many people swear by their powers. So, if you’re curious to give them a go, see below what some of the our crystals could do for you.

It is regarded as one of the most valuable of all metaphysical crystals for spiritual exploration, bringing together all aspects of communication and psychic power. It is said to be particularly helpful in uniting the mind and heart, teaching one to live with a compassionate heart and illuminated mind. 

Peridot, in shades of olive as seen in our Peridot hoop drop earrings below, is one of the few gemstones that forms in only one colour.

Beautifully faceted, it is regarded as a crystal of warmth and well-being, mentally stimulating and physically regenerating. It carries the gift of inner radiance, sharpening the mind and opening it to new levels of awareness and growth.
