Most of the pyramids and balls below originate from Brazil or Mexico, the world's most prolific sources of natural earth crystals and gemstones!
Each piece is unique - it is the very nature of earthstones. While the shapes are cut and polished to near perfection, the actual beauty of these earthstones lies in the irregularities within the
crystalline structure.
Phantoms, veils, cracks and crackles all refract and reflect light upon viewing from different angles. Many interior surfaces actually refract light into the visible spectrum!
You can spend hours gazing into these crystals, always finding new crevices and fractures to enchant your imagination!
These crystal pyramids and balls can be used for meditation, healing, or truly elegant adornment of your shelves or tabletops.
Whatever your reason is for loving earthstones, consider bringing into your life one (or all!) of the items below.

Clear Brazilian Quartz Ball
Quartz is a mineral miracle of nature! Formed within the earth, it manifests its crystalline structure into a six-sided, pointed crystal. The crystals can range from miniscule, to a rare meter across! They usually form in clusters ranging from three or four connected individual 'points' to hundreds!
Each quartz ball is truly unique, being cut and polished out of a single quartz "point" crystal. These are not like the clear, gazing type of lead crystal ball. The beauty here lies in its interior universe of clouds and striations.

A "delicate" quartz crystal, Chinese Fluorite vibrates with dramatic purples, crystalline white and striking greens. A translucent "softer" mineral, Ancient Greeks and Romans carved goblets and wall reliefs from fluorite.

RAINBOW OBSIDIAN BALL
Obsidian is formed near volcanic activity. It is actually a type of "glass" which is blown off by the volcano and quickly cooled in the open air. These marvelously polished spheres are becoming harder to come by. They are stunning on a wall shelf or mantle. Seen in the sunlight, these seemingly solid BLACK orbs shimmer with iridescence from below the surface, in the shape of a magical rainbow bulls-eye!
Obsidian balls come with a beautiful high-polish, beveled crystal-clear base!

A cousin of "moonstone", it's mined in Labrador. ENCHANTING!!!!!!!!
