Tumbled stones:

Our collection of tumbled stones includes a wide variety of minerals. Each offers a unique range of colours, patterns and textures that reflect the Earth’s mineral diversity.

Tumbled stones are pieces of raw minerals that have been carefully shaped by human hands.

This is a mechanical process during which the raw stones are polished.

The minerals are usually placed in a rotating drum filled with water and an abrasive. This process takes around ten days.

As the stones rub against one another, they become polished into pebble-like shapes.

Whether for meditation, interior decoration or to expand your mineral collection, you’re sure to find something to your liking in our online shop.

 

Chrysoprase:

Chrysoprase is a variety of chalcedony. Its colour is due to the presence of nickel.

The name chrysoprase is derived from the Greek words ‘chrysos’, meaning gold, and ‘prason’, meaning leek.

This name refers to the stone’s vivid green colour. It is, in fact, often mistaken for imperial jade.

Chrysoprase is generally translucent to opaque. It may sometimes contain inclusions or bands.

The main deposits of chrysoprase are found in Australia, Germany, the United States, Russia and Brazil.
