Why our products are special & how we raise awareness for ethically sourced crystals through your purchase
Highest Quality & "Ethical Mining"
This product comes from the most ethically clean source & highest quality production.
Together we fight for ethically correct minerals
We support a company founded by a friend who worked at Greenpeace for 30 years & has now started a company for clean mineral extraction.
We do not sell cheap and unethical mass productions from China & India
In this world, many minerals are illegally, unsafely, bloodily and corruptly mined, the conditions are often miserable from extraction to the cutting process, there is a lot of exploitation and the profit often goes to large corporations. Workers are poorly protected during mining, if it is even legal, & the pay is a sad joke.
Through our company's cooperation in Peru, we ensure that we know: -where our minerals come from, who mined them & under what conditions, who cut the product & how it was processed, that it has no long supply chain & that in the end we receive a specially tailored high-quality product that is unique on the market.
So we wish you a lot of joy with this product; it comes from an ethically clean production & the minerals were found and processed directly in Peru.
Andean opal, as its name suggests, comes from the Andes of Peru, has a hardness of 6 to 7 and belongs to the family of opaline quartz. It occurs in pink, blue-green, brown and white, with different properties attributed to the different colored stones.
Even among the Incas and Aztecs, the stone had a special meaning: an eye of the gods, which they left behind when they left the earth. From the perspective of these ancient tribes, it was a stone of hope that, in times of war, reminded them that people, animals, and nature belong together in harmony. Even today, this stone is considered a protective and healing stone in Peru and is traditionally worn as jewelry.
Especially pink Andean opal is said to dispel depressive moods and fears. In addition, it promotes true love, but it also increases the desire for eroticism and sexuality. It gives spontaneity and joy of life and thus helps to get through everyday life in a good mood and thus better. The physical effect manifests itself in an improved function of enzymes, but also helps in the prevention of worm infestation, mites, and viral infections. In general, it is known as a healing stone for the digestive system. Among other things, it alleviates inflammation and complaints in the stomach area, promotes metabolism and strengthens the liver, especially if it is damaged by toxins and alcohol.
The green-blue or greenish stone, on the other hand, has calming properties, dissolves mental blocks, strengthens memory and, above all, helps to maintain or regain calm during exams. It also has a very positive effect on the body. It is often used for lung complaints, as it alleviates allergic reactions of the lungs and bronchi. In general, it can be said that the body's readiness to react allergically to something is inhibited. It works particularly well with allergens such as animal hair, environmental toxins and dust.
The brown-white Andean opal combines the properties of the pink and green-blue stones and also enhances their positive properties when used together.
The white stone, on the other hand, is said to have hardly any special positive properties for humans, but it can be used to suck out the negative energies that have accumulated in the other Andean opals and thus clean them without having to discharge them.
Properties attributed to all Andean opals include, for example, the strengthening of one's own talents and expressiveness. In addition, inner contentment is improved and one reacts more calmly in stressful situations, but also in relationships.
The stones should be cleaned and discharged regularly with lukewarm, clear water. It is also important not to forget to regularly extract negative energies. After cleaning, charging in a rock crystal tumbled stone is recommended to ensure the continued existence of the positive properties.
