STONE STORIES

N A M E : DRUZY or DRUZED QUARTZ

I wish my name sounded more sophisticated but it’s what the geologists called me. I got my name from the word “druse,” which refers to a rock surface (usually a cavity) covered with tiny crystals, such as those found inside geodes (rocks) or in larger pockets of mineral deposits far below the earth. However, many people simply call me the ‘Gemstone of Heaven’.

WHERE AM I FROM?

I’m from anywhere in the world where it’s hot and there’s a place for water to collect and evaporate on a piece of rock. I most often appear along river beds and shorelines, like Brazil, where the best amethysts come from!

MY BEST FEATURES:

I’m 100% natural! No additives or fillers in me! And I glitter like sugar coating on a piece of candy. Even I have to admit I’m pretty exquisite – nothing else like me on earth..I’m even more sparkly than diamonds. And I come in all sorts of rainbow rich colours: Purple (where my name changes to Amethyst), Green Pink, Brown, Yellow, Blue, Orange. Designers love me because I make fabulous jewellery and am easy to work with. I’m not stuffy at all and get along well with everyone!

WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU:

Most people believe I can help you to calm down and bring you peace if you’re a bit stressed, so I’m worn not only for my beauty but for your spirit. Some wearers believe I can purify and amplify your body’s natural healing abilities, but one thing for sure…. You’ll feel and look like a million when you wear me as a piece of jewellery.

TAKE CARE OF ME:

Wear me often – I love to show your off! But I am sort of fragile as I will break if I’m dropped. Never use harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners on me, and this includes perfumes! A good wipe with a soft dry cloth will keep me looking!
