AMETHYST (7th chakra)
Amethyst is a purple gem belonging to the quartz family. It gets its varied shades of purple from the effects of ionizing radiation on small traces of iron compounds within the quartz. It forms crystals that can be several tens of centimeters large. The richest deposits are found in Brazil. 
Amethyst is valued for its calming and protective effects, helping to alleviate stress and insomnia. It promotes intuition and spiritual growth, while also shielding against negative energy.

SODALITE (6th chakra) 
Sodalite is typically light to dark blue, or bluish-gray, often with white veins. Besides jewelry making, it's used for exclusive cladding and gigantic interior sculptures. Namibian sodalite boasts a deep blue hue and sometimes resembles lapis lazuli. 
Sodalite calms the mind and aids logical thinking, thereby supporting objectivity and rational decision-making. On a spiritual level, it develops intuition and facilitates communication, helping to express truth and inner wisdom.

BLUE AVENTURINE (5th chakra)
A very interesting colored variety of cryptocrystalline quartz owes its coloration to inclusions of blue silicates. The most famous deposits are in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. Although it appeared on the gemstone market relatively recently, it has already gained considerable popularity among collectors. 
Blue aventurine is known for its calming effects on emotions and the mind, helping to alleviate stress and fear. It promotes clear communication and the expression of truth, while also strengthening inner peace and understanding.

AVENTURINE (4th chakra)
Brazilian aventurines stand out with a green hue, which comes from the admixture of chromium mica (fuchsite). Besides its impressive coloration, it also boasts a high luster and a gentle shimmer caused by dispersed flakes of mica or hematite. In terms of composition, it is a variety of fine-grained quartz. 
Aventurine is a stone of luck and prosperity, bringing calm and emotional well-being, and helping to release anxiety and fear. It promotes self-confidence and decisiveness, inspires new ideas, and opens the path to abundance.

CITRINE (3rd chakra)
Citrine is an attractive version of quartz, but the raw material is very rare in nature. Citrine is therefore often produced by heat-treating amethyst – the transformation of bivalent iron into trivalent iron causes the purple color to change to yellow. Citrines processed from high-quality Brazilian amethyst excel with a beautiful golden-yellow hue and substitute for the often unaffordable natural citrines.
The stone promotes positive energy and abundance, helping to transform negative energies into optimism and providing vitality to achieve goals. It helps to shed fear, thereby supporting inner calm and a positive approach to life.

CARNELIAN (2nd chakra)
Carnelians are generally characterized by yellowish, reddish, and orange hues caused by the presence of hematite. This mineral has a long history, having been used as a gemstone since ancient times. The type we offer originates from Malawi. 
Carnelian is a stone of energy and vitality, which strengthens courage and motivation, and helps overcome hesitation and apathy. It promotes creativity and sexuality, revives passion, and brings joy into life.

RED JASPER (1st chakra)
Jasper is a variety of chalcedony and owes its striking red color to its iron oxide content. It was widely used in Mesopotamian cultures for making tools, ornaments, and amulets. The largest deposits of red jasper are found in South Africa, India, and Brazil. 
Red jasper is a powerful grounding stone that strengthens vitality and courage, bringing a sense of stability and security. It supports physical strength and endurance.

ROSE QUARTZ (4th chakra) 
Rose quartz is a very well-known and popular mineral, a variety of quartz. It owes its gentle pink color to admixtures of the mineral dumortierite. The stone is widely and popularly used in jewelry. Major deposits are found in Brazil, Madagascar, South Africa, and Namibia. 
Rose quartz is a stone of unconditional love, which opens the heart, heals emotional wounds, and attracts love in all forms. It promotes self-love, compassion, and inner peace, helping to forgive and release pain.

BLACK OBSIDIAN (1st chakra)
Obsidian, or volcanic glass, forms in a unique way when hot lava cools so rapidly that the individual minerals do not crystallize. The stone has an intense black color and originates from Mexico. Mexican obsidians were used by the ancient Aztecs, who crafted ornaments, weapons, and ritual objects from it. 
Black obsidian is a powerful protective stone that absorbs negative energies and removes blockages, thereby supporting deep healing. At the same time, it aids in grounding and self-discovery, reveals hidden truths, and strengthens personal power.
