Firstly I want to thank all of you, our lovely customers, who keep this Dream alive. Those of you who have been supporting us for up to 30 years ! Really ! Have of course become as old friends. I'd like to say a special thank you this year to our Web customers from all over the world. From Japan to Siberia, America to Europe, I get a real buzz sending a little Crystal Heart energy around our Lovely Planet. We have of course been fantastically busy little Elves frantically filling the Shop with conscious presents, and are happy to wrap free of charge ( unless it's too big ! ) So keep an eye...
10 pm Saturday Night, and just closed the Shop. Can't believe it's been a month since my last Blog Post ! Just been so busy. Anyway, a week ago we got our biggest shipment of crystals in and I will be uploading some selected pieces. We've a whole bunch of Amethyst Caves and candle holders - and every one is really special. Aqua Aura points sold loose by the gm. Pendants are finally on their way. A couple of big Smoky Crystals - one with Rutile inclusions, the other with masses of red Epidote. Amazing prices as I managed to make some good deals. Heaps of new Crystal Kits and Affirmation ston...
Wow. It's 10 pm on Saturday night but I've had lots of fun uploading gorgeous gems :-) Mandarin Garnet ! Double Wow ! This has been something of a mythical stone for me - but at last we have some in stock. Still the same warm centering energy typical of Garnets but an explosion of abundant creativity. Chatting about all the different forms of Garnet with Paul I loved his explanation " Garnet is a greedy guts ", he said. " It'll just absorb anything spare elements going and that's why there's so many colours "
Also new is the first Australian Chrysocolla we've seen, from the Northen Territor...
I didn't buy any Moldavite on the last trip because this time the energy of the stones just didn't feel right. But Paul's does ! Turns out there's a professor in Czechoslovakia who specialises in Moldavite and buys his direct from the field, and Paul buys directly from him. Moldavite is one stone you have to be careful about, and we at the Heart care a lot about Authenticity. We also got some fantastic faceted pendants which all show the classic spherical bubbles and flow structure of genuine Moldavite. There's many theories about how Moldavite was formed but this, from another Czech Profes...
Well it's been a plothole easily overlooked over the years :-) We sell so many pendants on the website, and in the shop we've got a huge range of chains. We just never uploaded them so you can see them too ! Today I begin to remedy that. All our snake chains have now been uploaded - see them here - SILVER CHAINS
Over the next few weeks I'll add other types - belchers, oxidised etc.
We import all our chains so pricing has always been difficult since with every order silver cost and exchange rates change. The mentally challenging part of the job today was to work out an average price over th...
Wow it's been a massive 3 weeks since I returned from my trip. Sadly the lovely Alex left, so there were a few tears there. We all miss her but wish her well in her new career. We had another staff member off with food poisoning. So with all that going on and training up the equally lovely Jess I've been pretty busy and only now feel grounded and back " in my Skin "
Nevertheless I've kept up with uploading a new stone every day - so check out " New Jewellery " Don't forget, if I upload multiple stones I only put one in this collection but with a link to the rest. There's lots more to come ...
