Welcome to Kaia & Crystals, where our passion for the incredible world of minerals comes to life. Founded in Barcelona in 2022, our company is the culmination of over a decade of exploration, discovery, and a deep-seated love for crystals.
Our story began long before Kaia & Crystals was born. It started with a shared interest in handmade jewelry that my husband João and I, Sònia, nurtured. This interest led us to the mesmerizing universe of crystals. A pivotal moment in our journey was a visit to João's homeland, Brazil, specifically to a small town named Cristalina, renowned for its rich abundance of minerals. The charm and allure of this place captivated us, sparking a lifelong fascination with crystals.
Our adventure didn’t stop there. A subsequent trip to India, the global center for gem polishing, solidified our desire to delve deeper into the mineral trade. It was here that we decided to start our first online stone store on Etsy in 2010. What began with cabochons for jewelry making soon expanded to include a variety of crystals, from raw stones and therapeutic cut minerals to collectible pieces.
In 2022, joined by our dear friend Carlo, we took a significant step forward and founded Kaia & Crystals. This venture embodies the spirit of our initial store but with a focus on wholesale trade. Our mission is to provide high-quality crystals while ensuring conscious and ethical practices throughout our supply chain.
Our main suppliers are located in Madagascar, Pakistan, India, and Brazil. We pride ourselves on working directly with local companies and mines, allowing us to trace the journey of each crystal from its origin to your hands. This direct relationship ensures the quality of our products and supports ethical trade practices.
Every mineral in our store is handpicked by us during our travels. We are meticulous about quality and value the close relationships we build with our partners. At Kaia & Crystals, we believe in the magic and power of these natural wonders and are committed to sharing them with you in the most responsible way possible.
Thank you for joining us on this journey. Explore our collection and discover the beauty and energy that each crystal holds.
