Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our stones, shipping, returns, and care.

Products & Materials

Learn about our stones, their natural characteristics, selection, and care.

Are your raw stones, agates, crystals, and obsidian genuine?

Yes. We accurately disclose each product’s material, origin (when known), form, and treatment status on the product page. We never describe synthetic, man-made, or treated materials as untreated natural stones.

A certificate of authenticity or testing report is included only when explicitly stated on the relevant product page.

Have your stones been dyed, heated, or otherwise treated?

Treatment information is provided on each product page. Where applicable, products will be clearly identified as natural and untreated, heat-treated, dyed, color-enhanced, coated, filled, reconstructed, synthetic, or man-made.

If you have specific requirements regarding treatments, please contact us about the relevant SKU before placing your order.

Will I receive the exact item shown in the photos?

This depends on how the product is listed:

  • Exact Piece: You will receive the exact item shown and identified in the product photos.
  • Intuitively Selected / Randomly Selected: You will receive one item selected from the same batch. Its color, pattern, shape, and natural characteristics may vary.
  • Sold by Weight or in Bulk: Items are selected according to the stated total weight and size range. The number, shape, and appearance of individual pieces may vary.

The selection method will always be stated on the product page.

Are natural cracks, inclusions, pits, and color variations normal?

Yes. Natural minerals may contain unique patterns, color bands, inclusions, crystal cavities, associated minerals, natural fractures, small pits, minor chips, or uneven surfaces.

These characteristics are generally part of the stone’s natural formation or processing and are not considered defects. However, fresh breakage, structural separation, or an item that significantly differs from its description may qualify for assistance under our damaged-item policy.

Why do the size and weight vary slightly?

Because natural stones have irregular shapes and are measured by hand, slight variations are unavoidable.

Please allow a size tolerance of approximately ±1 mm and a weight tolerance of approximately ±0.1 g. Products sold by weight are measured according to the actual total weight of the complete package or batch.

How do I choose the right stone for me?

You can choose according to the mineral type, color, shape, size, intended display area, collecting preferences, or budget.

Any symbolic or spiritual meanings mentioned in our product descriptions are based on cultural traditions and personal practices. They are provided for reference only and should not be considered medical, psychological, financial, or other professional advice.

How should I clean, care for, and store my stones?

We recommend gently wiping your stones with a soft, dry cloth and storing them separately to prevent scratches or damage.

Avoid dropping, squeezing, extreme temperature changes, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight, and contact with harsh chemicals or cleaning products. Crystal clusters, points, and areas with natural fractures require extra care.

Before washing any stone with water, confirm that the mineral is water-safe. Dry it thoroughly after cleaning.

Can the stones be placed in water, exposed to sunlight, or cleaned with salt?

Not all minerals are suitable for water, salt, prolonged sunlight, or heat. Some stones may fade, dissolve, oxidize, crack, or release mineral particles when exposed to unsuitable conditions.

Unless otherwise stated on the product page, we recommend using a dry, non-contact cleaning or storage method. Our products are not intended to be swallowed, added to drinking water, or used to prepare crystal-infused water.
