The Most Popular Stone Types to Buy – Origin and Quality Characteristics

The quality of a stone depends significantly on its origin, its transparency, and the degree of its natural formation. Clear quartz from the Alps, for example, has been considered the epitome of pure crystal energy for centuries – you'll find it with us as Alpine Clear Quartz, as Clear Quartz Points, or in magnificent Clear Quartz Specimens. Especially sought after by collectors are clear quartz pieces with natural inclusions such as pyrite or black tourmaline, which give each piece an unmistakable inner life.

In stone lore, individual stone types are attributed particular symbolic meaning – according to spiritual tradition, clear quartz is considered a stone of clarity, while tourmaline is traditionally associated with protection and grounding. These traditions are part of a long cultural heritage, which we incorporate into our product descriptions respectfully and without exaggerated claims. Learn more about distinguishing genuine from fake stones in our article about buying genuine tourmaline.

Mineralogically speaking, most of our stone types belong to the class of silicates, oxides, or carbonates – you can learn more about the scientific classification of minerals on the Wikipedia page on minerals. This background information helps you search specifically for the properties that matter most to you when buying.
