The Crystal Directory: Every Stone on Our Shelves, A to Z

Welcome to the Third Eye Alchemy Crystal Directory, your field guide to every tumbled and raw stone on our shelves. Whether you scanned the sign in the shop or found us online, this is the place to look up a stone, learn where it comes from and what it's traditionally used for, and find the one that's calling to you.

How to choose a stone

There's no wrong way to pick a crystal. Some people choose by intention: grounding and protection, calm and peace, abundance, love, energy, or intuition. Others choose by chakra, matching a stone to the energy center they want to support. And some simply pick up the stone their hand keeps going back to. If you're not sure where to start, take our quiz, Which Crystal Is Calling You?, or ask us in the shop.

Caring for your stones

Most tumbled stones are easy keepers, but a few need a gentle hand. Selenite, Angelite, Honey Calcite and Lepidolite are soft and don't like water, so keep them dry. Never put Malachite or Chrysocolla in water or elixirs. Wash your hands after handling Sulphur Quartz and keep it away from little ones and pets. To cleanse any stone, rest it on Selenite (see our Ultimate Selenite Guide), pass it through a smoke cleanse, or set it out under the full moon.

Prices and availability

Prices on our online shop pages match what you'll pay in the shop. Every stone is natural and one of a kind, so color and size vary a little from piece to piece. Stones marked "in store now, online soon" are on our shelves today and will be added to the online shop as we photograph them.

The Directory, A to Z

Each entry gives you the stone's nickname, the chakra it's most often paired with, a short note on the stone itself (what it's made of and where it's found), and its metaphysical properties. Tap a stone's name to visit its shop page.

A note on what you'll read here: geological details reflect standard mineralogy. Metaphysical properties come from long-held tradition and crystal lore and are shared for spiritual practice, not as medical advice.
