The Stone Circle Online Crystal Shop

 Introducing The Stone Circle 

The online crystal shop with a difference

Those that follow the blog will know that I am into crystals, big time. Specifically, I am into getting out into the wilderness to try and find them. Me, my dog, and my backpack, can often be found pottering around the lowlands, trying to source the best material I can find. 

Visit The Stone Circle

Recently, this pottering has been joined by another, the original potterer, @rockhounding_fox. A few years ago, it was him that sparked my initial interest in rocks to being with. Of course, I had loved gemstones since I was a girl... but I hadn't realised that they were just lying around up there. In all my foolish youth, I never stopped to think about where the crystals came from... and that's what it is that sets the Stone Circle apart.

We intend to start an online platform where we can sell the conjoined efforts of our many hunts. We learned how to scrub those minerals up so they looked better, how to sand and polish them to a high shine, and even how to cut them in half. 

When you come to us for your crystal, the idea is that we can tell you where it was found, when it was found, and which one of us it was that found it. We do intend to trade in old crystal collections and the likes too, but we want to start something new... a crystal store where all of the minerals bought and sold are ethically sourced. 

We want crystals we can trace right back to the slope of the mountain or the curve of the river. We want to produce collections of all-natural, non-dyed, non-sprayed crystals that have only been opened, touched, and polished, by us.

We are operating under the premise that each of these stones comes to us for a reason. We are meant to find it a new home, to send it out into the world like a new puppy. Each crystal has a job to do - even if it's only to put a smile on someone's face. We help them perform that task... that's what the Stone Circle is all about.

So pop by the Stone Circle, show us some love, enjoy your visit and browse a fine collection of Scottish minerals. You can read about the finds on the blog, even if you don't want to spend anything. You might find the thing you are looking for. More likely, you will find something that helps you attain what it is that you're looking for... Crystals can be fickle that way.

Besides, if it's the universe that's offering, it's rude to say no.
