FOLKLORE AND SPIRITUAL PROPERTIES OF SODALITE:
Sodalite has been known as the stone of artists, singers, painters and sculptors because it is believed to be able to promote inspiration, creativity while also providing protection. It is a wonderful stone for creative types, balancing both sides of the mind, and allowing it to express emotional ideas in physical forms. It clears up mental confusion and fosters inner peace. Sodalite strengthens the power of mind over body and bridges the gap between thoughts and feelings.

ATTENTION CRAFTERS, JEWELERS, AND MAKERS: If precise sizing is critical to your project PLEASE convo us with your size requirements, and we will do our best to meet your needs, or we will let you know if we can't.
If the crystals you ordered are not the size you expected, PLEASE reach out to us before leaving negative feedback. We have quartz crystal lots available in a variety of sizes, browse our shop to see if there is another size that suits your needs.
We carefully hand-sort and grade all our quartz crystal points so you may choose from the size(s) that suits your needs.
We remove all broken points so you don’t receive crystals you can’t use (though an occasional one may slip through, which is why we always throw in extras). If you happen to *want* broken crystals for your crafts, we have them available in a separate listing.
We always include a few extra crystals with each bulk lot, to make up for any crystals that may get broken, and because it tends to make people happy to get more than what they ordered.
Unless otherwise indicated, quartz crystal points and gemstone pebbles are NOT drilled.
Unless otherwise indicated, pendants include a free black cotton cord w/ slip knot for an adjustable necklace.
You may remove the pendant from the cord and place on a chain, or use as a focal bead in handcrafted jewelry or other crystal crafts, if desired.
We package these carefully, but know they are carved from natural gemstone and could break if dropped or placed under extreme weight or pressure.
The $5 gemstone pendants are imported. Do not expect the highest quality. They are a really good deal for the price, but may not be perfect. There may be defects in the stone, or the way it's drilled or glued. Rarely, the bail will come off, or the headpin will come out. Please be aware, and handle with care.
When possible we use recycled or repurposed shipping materials.
Priority Mail upgrades are available. From prior experience, we do not recommend next-day express mail, as the USPS does not actually guarantee next-day delivery (but they’ll take your money for it). If you need it quickly, let us know.
