Review: Healing Crystal Wand Set

This cute mini set of 5 point hexagonal pointed gemstones is by Jancosta. It was £4.89 with Amazon Prime next day shipping. The stones are cute, measuring 32x8mm. They include quartz crystal, Natural Amethyst, Clear Quartz, Rose Quartz, Green Aventurine and Sodalite. The gemstones are packaged in an unusual box, the clear sections feel squishy and do feel as though they would protect the stones if the box got dropped. 

I purchased this set as a Christmas gift to send to a friend in Canada. It is small, light weight and so will be reasonably cheap to post. This would also make a good stocking filler or gift for the dreaded Secret  Santa.

Bohemarie Jewellery, Crystals for Success Set

 

I purchased the Crystals for Success gift set from Bohemarie Jewellery via Etsy (she also has her own website Bohemarie.com). The stones by themselves cost £16 and with the selenite bowl £33. I bought the stones and bowls as I purchased them for their visual rather than their magical properties (although if I finally had some success in life that would be great).

The stones are rough pyrite, clear crystal, bloodstone, malachite and tigers eye. The stones are packed into a Bohemarie gift bag. The stones are just the right size - they fit in the palm of my hand and feel very tactile. There is also a card which outlines the stones properties. The selenite bowl and wand are beautiful and they almost glow in the sun. The wand is supposed to cleanse and recharge the stones and as someone who knows absolutely nothing about this I am finding it interesting to read about the stones properties and how they can be cleansed and recharged. 

I would purchase stones and gift sets from Bohemarie Jewellery in the future. The customer service was great and the items were well priced and great quality.

April Birthstones: Diamond & Clear Quartz

There are two  April birthstones; diamond and clear quartz.

Diamonds are probably the most recognisable and popular gemstones in the world and is the modern birthstone for the US, UK and India.  It was also the birthstone for the traditional Polish and Hindu calendars.  The expensive relation to graphite, diamonds are a crystal that come in many different colours and are the hardest gemstones. Diamonds can be found in sedimentary rock, kimberlite (volcanic samples) and alluvial deposits. They are thought to bring luck and fend off misfortune for the wearer.  They are also suppose to improve relationships and bring balance, clarity and abundancy.

Clear quartz [rock crystal]  is the second April birthstone for the UK.  It is clear like a diamond and is often seen as a cheaper alternative. There are quartz mines on all continents.  Clear quartz is supposed to bring happiness and allow the wearer to see into the future.
