Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz and is the birthstone for February. In classical times, amethyst was believed to protect the wearer from becoming drunk. The name comes from the Greek amethystos, which means ‘not intoxicated.’ Most of the world's supply of Amethyst currently comes from Brazil and Uruguay.

Haemetite is a common iron oxide mineral, the name is derived from the Greek word for blood “haima” due to the colour the mineral turns when ground to powder. Haematite benefits, primarily from crystal healing, include grounding, protection, and mental clarity, helping you feel secure and focused by shielding against negativity and balancing energy.
-
Lapis lazuli (A semiprecious stone valued for its deep blue colour. The source of the pigment ultramarine, it is not a mineral but a rock coloured by lazurite. It is said to stimulate the third eye chakra, enhancing intuition and spiritual awareness. This is why it's often used in meditation and spiritual practices. Lapis Lazuli is also known for its protective properties).
-
Peridot (sometimes called chrysolite, is a yellow-green transparent variety of olivine. Peridot is one of the few gemstones that occur in only one colour. It forms deep inside the Earth's mantle and is brought to the surface by volcanoes).
-
Rhodonite is a pink-to-red manganese silicate mineral, named from the Greek for "rose," known for its distinctive black manganese oxide veining, used as a gemstone and ornamental stone for carvings and beads, prized in crystal healing for emotional balance, trauma recovery, and heart chakra work, and found globally in metamorphic rocks.
-
Rose Quartz (Rose quartz is one of the many quartz varieties used as a gemstone. It gets its name from its delicate pink colour, which ranges from very light (almost white), to medium-dark. The use of rose quartz is said to date back as far as 7,000 BC and it has also been claimed that Egyptian and Roman women used rose quartz face masks to clear their complexions and prevent wrinkles. Today rose quartz is often used as jewellery, for meditation, or as decoration in homes or office spaces).
-
Sea glass (Sea glass pieces are shards of glass that have been smoothed over time by the tumbling action of water, waves, and sand. As pieces of glass soak in salt water and get tossed against the sand by the waves for anywhere from years to decades, all the sharp edges and corners become smooth).
