The Seal of Fire: The Creative Power of Carnelian. ☀️📜

There is a tangible warmth to Carnelian that feels like holding the final moments of a midsummer sunset. It is an assertive stone, deeply rooted in the physical plane, meant to stir action and stoke the embers of the sacral chakra.

In antiquity, it was prized above almost all else for seals and amulets because hot wax cleanly releases from its smooth, silica surface without sticking—making it a literal and figurative tool for leaving your unique mark on the world.

Featured are two grounding talismans for the season: our crisp, cool Dainty Carnelian Silver Anklet and the warm, glowing 14k Gold-Filled Bracelet. Hand-formed with high-quality natural stone in Toronto, Canada.

The Structured Energy of Rainbow Fluorite. 🏛️🌌

To look into a piece of high-clarity Rainbow Fluorite is to see geometry and chaos living in perfect harmony. It forms naturally in flawless cubes and octahedrons, and its layers transition sharply from deep plum purples to seafoam greens and icy teals.

It is the premier stone of the intellect. Where other stones comfort the emotions, Fluorite untangles the thoughts. It acts like a digital defragmenter for the brain, absorbing chaotic static and replacing it with clean, linear clarity.

Presenting two major focal points from our studio: the heavily banded, Hand-Carved Wing Pendants and the rhythmic, striking Rainbow Fluorite Beaded Necklace, finished cleanly with a 14k gold-filled structural clasp. Handcrafted in Toronto, Canada.

The Sound of Stone: The Peaceful Resonance of Hetian and Icy Jade. 🪵🩵

Jade is not a crystal that demands attention with flashy sparkle; its power is structural, tactile, and deeply ancient. To hold real jade is to feel a stone that warms quickly to your body temperature, acting like a living extensions of your own field.

Long associated with the virtues of wisdom, justice, and courage, it acts as a energetic stabilizer for the heart chakra.

We are exploring two sides of this legendary stone: the classical, rich depth of the Hetian Green Jade Beaded Bracelet, and the modern, ethereal transparency of the Icy Blue Jade Circle Necklace floating seamlessly on an ultra-fine 14k gold-filled chain. Hand-shaped and strung in Toronto, Canada.

The Radiance of Isis: The Compassionate Medicine of Rose Quartz. 🏛️🌸

Rose Quartz does not carry a loud or demanding energetic presence. Its frequency is slow, cyclical, and deeply nurturing—reminiscent of the quiet comfort found in a soft morning fog.

Long held as a sacred talisman for the heart, its history is deeply intertwined with ancient cosmetics and holistic medicine, where it was utilized to draw out impurities, soothe raw emotional wounds, and restore a sense of absolute emotional safety.

We are exploring two distinct stylistic textures for this stone: the ultra-fine, classic silhouette of the Bezel-Set 14k Gold-Filled Bracelet, and the cool, structural weight of our .925 Sterling Silver Tube Bead Bracelet. Hand-formed and polished in Toronto, Canada.

Amethyst and Rose Quartz, the stones, are related. 

SU fact, Amethyst's whip is a rose vine. Steven/Rose's shield is a coiled rose vine.

Which mplies that the characters of Rose Quartz and Amethyst, like their namesake stones are in fact related. Either by sisterhood or cousins. 

Compare their apparent body shapes as well (the silhouette in laser light cannon and her picture for Rose and Amethyst's body shape). They're also very similar. I'd suspect that if we ever do find out, they're likely sisters.
