🔮 Green Fluorite: The Stone of Growth and Renewal 

💚 Heart Chakra

Crystal clarity has a way of revealing the true character of a specimen, and this exceptional Xianghualing Fluorite leaves very little hidden.

The first thing that captivated us was the extraordinary clarity. Delicate blue-green fluorite cubes rise across the specimen like a miniature crystal city, each face displaying remarkable transparency and sharp geometry. Some of the larger cubes are so clear that they seem to disappear into the cluster, revealing the layers of crystal growth beneath them.

What makes this specimen particularly special is its provenance. Xianghualing is one of China's most celebrated fluorite localities, renowned amongst collectors for producing highly aesthetic fluorite specimens. Material from the older workings has become increasingly sought after, with fine pieces becoming far more difficult to source than they once were.

As light moves across the crystal faces, the vitreous lustre comes alive. Every cube catches and reflects light differently, creating a constantly changing display of brilliance and depth. The combination of exceptional transparency, elegant colour and beautifully preserved crystal structure gives this specimen a refined presence that photographs can only partially capture.

Niome and I are always drawn to pieces that reveal something new each time they are viewed. This is one of those specimens. The closer you look, the more details emerge, from the perfectly formed cubes to the intricate crystal landscape supporting them.

A remarkable collector specimen from one of China's most respected fluorite deposits, showcasing the beauty that made Xianghualing famous amongst mineral enthusiasts around the world.

🌠✨ Unique & Collectible ✨🌠

For Collectors of rare and unique crystals and for anyone that likes beautiful pieces around the home to add to the beauty and energy of your space.

Niome and I have been delving deeper and deeper into this part of our business for our own pleasure and collection but also for you to add to yours.

We spend countless hours developing relationships and connections with all our suppliers who are aligned with our love for all things crystal and through this process we have been able to acquire some amazing, beautiful pieces.

For us, collectible crystals are not an outlay but rather an investment. Whether the investment is for staging and uplevelling your homes energy, your energy and your homes décor or you see the value within a piece itself.

A piece that you may see today for a certain price may be a completely different price in 5-10 years’ time as everything comes to an end at some point, even certain varieties of crystals. This has been said to both Niome and myself from various friends within the industry and we have taken note.

Then there are crystals that have a delicate structure like Scolecite with their acicular fine needles shooting out from their matrix. Such delicate specimens and when you think about first the care within the handling that’s gone into first mining them, to then shipping them all around the world, my hat goes off to them.

The pieces we have in stock are pieces that truly have been cared for through all the processes it took for them to reach us.

Here are a few things to consider and even research when looking at collectible crystals for yourself -

The size of a certain crystal can be a factor as to whether it’s considered a collectible piece and can vary depending on the crystal type.

larger pieces have been around for a lot longer so to find a larger piece in a specific crystal can be an amazing investment. While smaller crystals depending on the stone itself might be of the rarer variety or the quality is outstanding, therefore it’s amazing it was even found.

If it is a fragile and delicate crystal and has not sustained any damage or minor damage. 

Quality of course comes into it as you can have some amazing fluorite and then you have some beautiful gem like Fluorite which is quite rare, especially Blue Fluorite

Specific crystals formed and still on their matrix opposed to polished and carved pieces etc of the same crystal. This can be the game changer between an incredible piece and a collectible piece.

 In the end it comes down to what you are drawn too and what is drawn to you. The bonus is when you buy a collectible crystal it becomes a physical investment and will only grow in value in the years to come.

What will your next investment be?
