We have used a variety of crystals along with our shells for both aesthetic reasons and also because of the potential energy and metaphysical benefits of these colorful gifts from our beautiful Earth.  Some say that the deep understanding of crystals and gemstones known to the ancients is beginning to be rediscovered in our time.  

As NicolaTesla said, “In a crystal we have the clear evidence of the existence of a formative life-principle, and though we cannot understand the life of a crystal, it is nonetheless a living being.” Everything that is on our earth is ultimately energy, whether it be the shells on the beach, animals, trees, plants, rocks, crystals, and each of us.
