3cm - 4cm Smoky Quartz is found in the veins of igneous and metamorphic rocks. Well-formed smoky quartz is found in the cavities of metamorphic rocks. This mineral's color varies depending on where it is found. In areas where there are radioactive mineral deposits, Smoky Quartz is very dark due to the emissions. Brazil and Madagascar are the world's biggest suppliers of Smoky Quartz. ***Due to natural variations of stones, the appearance will vary***

3cm - 4cm Wide Septarian concretions are concretions containing cavities or cracks, called septaria. The septaria are the calcite (yellow) filled cracks at the center of the rock, indicating where the center of the concretions have shrunk, possibly during dehydration during its transformative journey over a long period of time. Septarian can be found mostly in the Gulf of Mexico and Madagascar. ***Due to natural variations in stones, appearance will vary***

4.5cm Tall Caribbean calcite is a very new combination mineral that was recently found in 2019 in Pakistan. It's a combination of a very light ocean Blue Calcite and light brown and white aragonite. Although recently discovered, this mineral is not expected to stick around for long unless more deposits are found in other areas. ***Due to natural variations in stones, appearance will vary***

3cm Wide Aragonite is a carbonate mineral that is made up of calcium carbonate. It has the same formula as Calcite, but has a different crystal structure. Most aragonite is made up of hexagonal structures and is found in clusters. Aragonite can be white, colorless, gray, yellow, green, blue, red, purple or brown and is found in oxidized areas of ore deposits, hot spring deposits and caves. It is also found in some metamorphic and igneous rocks depending on location. Gem-quality Aragonite is mostly found in Germany and Austria but can also be found in Czechoslovakia, Sicily, Greece, Spain, and Japan. ***Due to natural variations in stones, appearance will vary***

5cm Wide Flower agate gets its name from the flower-like formations within the crystal's body. These crystals are volcanic rocks that are mainly composed of chalcedony and quartz. These crystals can vary in color; from pink to a dark grey/purple. Recently discovered in Madagascar, these crystals are believed to go back to 2000 BC. ***Due to natural variations in stones, the appearance will vary***

5cm Wide Moss agate is a semi-precious stone. It is a variety of Chalcedony and it formed from silicon dioxide. The field of this stone is a milky white or clear quartz with blue and green inclusions that form as a result of oxides in the mineral. The dendritic inclusions are mainly made from manganese or iron that grow into patterns to give it the moss look. ***Due to natural variations in stones, the appearance will vary***

3 x 1 x 3cm Carnelian is a part of the Chalcedony family. It is formed when two silica minerals with different crystal structures grow together such as quartz and moganite. The firey orange and red colors come from iron oxides in the mineral. Carnelian can be found in Brazil, India, and Uruguay. ***Due to natural variations in stones, the appearance will vary***

3 x 1 x 3cm Ocean jasper is a rare and colorful material exclusively from Madagascar. It is described as a variety of Orbicular Jasper due to its orb-like inclusions. Ocean jasper is a name for what is known to be a spherulitic chalcedony which is a cryptocrystalline variety of quartz. Cryptocrystalline is a term that means its crystals are too small to be seen with the naked eye. ***Due to natural variations in stones, appearance will vary***

4cm - 5cm Labradorite is a type of feldspar that gets it's flashy colors from intergrowths within the mineral. Light then travels through these intergrowths and displays its beautiful colors. These colors can range from purples and blues to greens and yellows. This mineral gets its name from where it was originally discovered, in Labrador, Canada. This mineral was also found in Finland during WWII and was also known as "Falcon's Eye". ***Due to natural variations in stones, the appearance will vary***

6cm x 5cm x 2cm Selenite-also known as Satin Spar- is a chemical sedimentary mineral. Unlike carbonate rocks and siliceous rocks, this mineral comes from seawater that evaporates and leaves the chemical found in selenite behind. This beautiful mineral has a pearly, satin-like appearance and is a very soft mineral. These minerals can be found in Mexico, Brazil, Japan, and many other countries! ***Due to natural variations in stones, the appearance will vary***

6cm - 7cm Wide Flower agate gets its name from the flower-like formations within the crystal's body. These crystals are volcanic rocks that are mainly composed of chalcedony and quartz. These crystals can vary in color; from pink to a dark grey/purple. Recently discovered in Madagascar, these crystals are believed to go back to 2000 BC. ***Due to natural variations in stones, the appearance will vary***
