The Place for the Rare and Unusual...

Chlorite Triplet

This ancient,Chlorite-included Quartz

crystal is a triplet;three crystals growing

 as a twin does,sharing the same

base but with three separate terminations.

The Chlorite seems dense inside the piece,

but when held to the light one can see

through it!It also forms a distinct phantom

inside the surface of the clear Quartz.

The base and the babies(there's three)

are all self-healed,and at least one of

them are a penetrator,growing inward.

There is a rather large key on the backside

which is healed,and a large portion of two

 sides toward the back had been heavily

corroded by the Chlorite,at some point,

and then healed over later on with

another layer of Quartz.Another episode

in the crystals long life included some

type of terrestrial trauma,probably an

earthquake,which broke the top-left

side away from the rest of the body,or

at least heavily cracked it.That portion

then rehealed back onto the crystal

when a yellowish-tan mineral filled the

crack and hardened,effectively gluing it

back together.The lower third of the piece

also contains interesting features,including

mist,veils possible penetrators,possible

manifestors and traces of Chlorite and

other minerals.With backlighting some of

the less-visible features come out,including

the Chlorite phantom in the tip which forms

three distinct tips.Overall,a very old-feeling

 piece of Quartz with tremendous capabilities

for healing and protection.This is truly a

healers dream-come-true.This old-soul

hails from South Africa,and is five inches

long and  one and a half inches at its

widest point.

Huge Golden-Healer

  This mammoth Golden Healer was mined

in the state of Washington;a very unusual

location for Healers.In fact the original

owner called it a Citrine,but it has the

unmistakeable light lemon coloration of

Golden Healers;nothing like Citrine at

all.Also,all one has to do is to hold this

beauty for more than a few moments,and

any doubt will be erased.It is very large for

 a Healer,five inches from base to tip,and

two inches in depth and width.It is,in a word,

stunning;I can find no other way to describe it.

The coloration is excellent,it has great clarity,

it contains possible manifesters,planes,veils,

mirrors and more!For me,its most endearing

feature is the wispy tendrils that spiral their

way upward,reaching for the tip.The crystal

itself seems to be luminous,catching light in

its complex interior and scattering it outward.

The sides show closely-grouped Lemurian-like

lines and the faces are clean,with very light

markings and etchings.The front face,as well as

the two adjoining to the left,are stepped.At the

back,near the bottom are two spots of Golden-

Healer inclusion,completely encased in the

Quartz.Just above these,near midway of the

crystal are some small,but delightful rainbows.

As if all of these features were not overwhelming

enough,it stands almost squarely on its healed

base for display!Breathtaking to say the least.

Ajoite in Quartz

The feeling one gets when you hold

one of these pieces is simply in-

describeable!It is exhilarating in

itself if only because of its rarity,but there

is much more.It is a guide that will lead

you on a fantastic journey deep within

yourself,and will lift you to heights

which could only be imagined before!

It is a keeper as well as a provider,a power-

ful energizer and also a gentle protector.

It is,in short,the most amazing crystal I

have ever kept.But as a Keeper,it is my

duty to pass all stones along when their time

comes;and so it is with a heavy heart that

I place this being on the site.It is,however,the

knowledge that the rightful owner will come

together with this being,that sustains me.

Parting is indeed,such sweet sorrow.

This beauty is three and one half inches

from the tip of the base to the top of the

termination.It is also one and one half inches

in depth and width.The features are so

numerous,

it could take volumes to describe them all.I

will touch on a few of them here,and you will

have

 to discover the rest for yourself.

The bottom half of the Crystal is veiled and

misted

with a tendency to clear somewhat on its way

toward the termination.There is a massive

double-

key on the backside which consumes two full

sides of the Crystal.It is completely rehealed,and

in the main crease is a fine line of Sugar Quartz.

The overall form of the Crystal is Cathedral-style,

and it has students and babies popping about.

The base itself is completely re-Crystallized with

uncountable triangular faces which sweep

toward

the rear of the Crystal.A good portion of these,

toward the front,contain a mauve phantom,very

reminiscent of Lithium.Just to the left of this area

is a small,bright-red inclusion.At the rear of the

Crystal,a group of babies jut out from the main

body.

Two of them contain Ajoite  inclusions.The faces

of the

main Crystal itself are quite clear,with very light

record

keepers in abundance,as well as light etchings.

Starburst-type Ajoite inclusions reside in or near

the tip,as well as a less-pronounced phantom-

type inclusion.The Crystal displays well on its

base

at a rather rakish angle.This Crystal is totally

natural,

as found.It is a floater,DT/ET,with no point of

attachment.

There is no part of this Crystal which has been

polished,

it is complete and natural,as found.Origin:Messina

Mine.
