Some of my favorites

I have a lot of crystals. A whole shelf full. These are a few of my favorite ones. Starting at the left we have good 'ol clear quartz, a good go-to stone. Next is tourmalated quartz; I love the black rods within the quartz-- it looks so cool. Bumblebee jasper is truly a favorite! I mean, just check out how picturesque that stone is. The earth sure creates some really cool things. Mookite Jasper is another gorgeous stone. I really love jaspers-- they are like a little painting in each one... so very beautiful! Next we have the very unique rhodonite that I own. Most pieces of rhodonite are pink with veins of grey, well this one is grey with one or two little veins of pink on it. Another family of stones that I really love are calcites. Blue, green, orange, I even have a piece of white calcite. The stone with pink on the top is called colbaltoan calcite. A find for sure! Next is a wonderful amethyst followed by rose quartz. I had no idea that there was such thing as a pink opal when I obtained this little beauty. And lastly we have a watermelon tourmaline.
