IT’A NOT A WANT, IT’S A NEED!… 😍 INTRODUCING BLUE TARA QUARTZ💙

From Serra de Minas, in a mine close to Itacambira in Brazil.
A relatively new find that was initially thought to be a type of Amphibole Quartz.
Originally named “Lã” Quartz which means “wool” in Portuguese, the name “Blue Tara”was given by an English speaker after taking it to the lab and discovering that it was something different from Amphibole.
The presence of magnesium, lithium, and the low aluminum content concluded that the inclusions are between the schorl-elbaite series and the schorl-dravite series both in the tourmaline group.

Blue Tara has a very high vibration that is impossible to ignore. Known for its ability to clear blocks to higher level spiritual communication as well as emotions and traumas that have been buried deep down to provide truth and clarity surrounding these.
It’s truly a “no BS” crystal, opening up the throat chakra and allowing you to speak your truth. Believed to be particularly helpful for problem solving and psychic development.

Blue Tara Quartz both semi polished and raw will be available at our next Instagram live sale this WEDNESDAY 16TH AUGUST 7:30PM

WHAT IS A PSEUDOMORPH!?🤔

There are 3 different kinds of Pseudomorphism- substitution, replacement or alteration.
Most often. Pseudomorphism occurs when a new mineral takes the place of an original crystal. In mineralogy, a pseudomorph is a mineral or mineral compound that appears in an atypical form (crystal system), resulting from a substitution process in which the appearance and dimensions remain, but the original mineral is replaced by another. The name literally means "false form".

Pseudomorph crystals are some of the most interesting, fascinating, rare and unique crystals you can own.
Not surprisingly, pseudomorph crystals are believed to promote transformation, magic and growth!

We currently have some of the most impressive Pseudomorph crystals we’ve ever seen! Check out these Quartz after Anhydrite Pseudomorphs (so this means the Anhydrite was there first and then Quartz replaced it!) Some of these pieces are also on Amethyst and some also feature Calcite & Chlorite, resulting in some truly mind blowing pieces!🤯
LET US KNOW YOUR FAVOURITE!?⬇️
