Here are the top 3 specimens you need in your home, all available through the LuxeRox crystal subscription:
Ammonite
Fossils are truly a marvel of the natural world, and the ammonite fossil is no exception. In fact, ammonites are thought to be some of the most impressive fossil specimens out there. When you subscribe to LuxeRox, you’ll receive an ammonite fossil in June. Ammonites are actually extinct cephalopods, a type of mollusk. And not only are they fascinating from a scientific perspective, but they also make great decorative pieces for your home. If you’re looking for a special gift for a new mom, consider giving an ammonite specimen as a push present – it’s said to have healing properties that can help with labor pains.
Getting Started with Fossils for Crystal Collectors
Getting Started with Fossils for Crystal Collectors Fossils are a piece of history, and collecting them goes hand in hand with collecting rocks or mineral specimens of any kind. This article will feature [...]
Azurite-Malachite
If you’re a fan of vibrant colors, azurite-malachite is the specimen for you. This combination of malachite and azurite is truly stunning, with deep greens and blues that seem to shimmer and shine in the light. Azurite is a deep blue copper carbonate hydroxide that has been used for pigments and dyes in European art for centuries. Malachite, on the other hand, is a green mineral that has been used for decorative purposes for thousands of years – it may even be the earliest ore of copper. Together, these two minerals create a specimen that is not only beautiful but also historically significant.
Celestite
If you’re looking for a specimen that’s out of this world, look no further than celestite. This mineral has actually been found on the moon! Celestite mineral specimens can come in a variety of colors, but it’s most well-known for its stunning blue hue. And despite its extraterrestrial origins, celestite is perfectly safe to touch and hold – in fact, it’s said to have calming and soothing properties that can help ease anxiety and promote a sense of inner peace. With its sky-like appearance, a celestite crystal is the perfect addition to any home looking for a touch of celestial beauty.
