Sourcing Relationship

I first met this source at the 2014 Tucson Gem Show. A language barrier coupled with the quick pace of the gem show, makes it difficult to discuss sensitive or complicated topics. Every year I speak with the owner, often asking questions about the same stones, but getting slightly different answers. The communication problem makes me highly selective about which stones I will buy from her. If the stone is from mainland China, and I can independently determine its likely mining origin, I will buy it since short supply chains are important. If a stone is from another country, I am more cautious.

In 2020, I became friends with a German wholeseller who has personally visited the Hong Kong supplier and was able to provide me with detailed information about working conditions.

It is often carried by pilgrims walking the road to Santiago. Chiastolite has a calm and grounding presence that helps us to become our Highest Self. It helps us to focus during prayer and meditation so that we are fully present in our spiritual life rather than merely reciting our prayers by rote. […]
