The natural stones and crystals I use in my jewellery are ethically sourced.
I use many types of natural stones, below are my most popular ones.
Some types of stones have different varieties and come from different continents and therefore have slightly different meanings.
Agate (Wisdom, Confidence, Prosperity & Balance) - linked to bright ideas and positive thinking too. This crystal symbolizes harmony and rebalance. This means you will feel an improvement in concentration and analytical abilities. The soothing power of agate allows you to feel calm and safe wherever you are.
Amethyst (Health, Beauty & Clarity) - Often viewed as a stone of peace, some believe amethyst's calming presence produces soothing dreams by bringing the dreamer more in tune with the Divine. This clarity and peacefulness also extends to the waking mind. Amethysts are said to help the mind flow freely in both mental and metaphysical dimensions.
Aquamarine (Soothing, Courage, Balance & Peace) - in the language of gemstones, aquamarine represents happiness, hope and everlasting youth. In ancient times, aquamarine was thought to protect those at sea. It was believed to make sailors fearless and safe from adversaries on the open waters.
Blue Quartz (Spirituality & Wisdom) - alleviates fear and enhances creativity and expression. It has the effect of balancing the throat chakra, it can assist in communication and allow its owner to reach out to others. It is an uplifting stone which can aid to lift depression and restore hope, happiness and peace.
Jade (Confidence, Courage & Abundance) - symbolism includes associations with nobility and wealth. Many consider it a protector of generations, living and dead. Jade has been and always will be the "Gem Supreme" and the "Jewel of Heaven," stone of the heart.
Jasper (Strength, Guidance, Balance & Independence) - in all its forms, is considered a powerful healing stone. Jasper is regarded as a gemstone that gives a sense of well-being, intensifying that feeling. Also a stone of gentleness and relaxation, fancy jasper's rich colours blend and complement each other so well for a complete sense of wholeness.
Lava (Strength, Passion & Creation) - is a grounding stone that strengthens one's connection to Mother Earth. It gives us strength and courage, allowing us stability through times of change. It provides guidance and understanding in situations where we may need to "bounce back". A calming stone, it is very useful in dissipating anger.

Moonstone (Energy, New Beginnings & Good Luck) - in Eastern cultures, "lighted" gems, such as moonstone, indicated good luck.

In India, the moonstone was considered very sacred.
