Ethical Sourcing Requires Transparency

Supply Chain for Chrysoberyl

This Chrysoberyl comes from artisanal miners in Odisha, India.  Artisanal mining for Chrysoberyl typically has a low environmental impact and is relatively low risk for miners.

This lapidary hand-polishes stones in Mumbai, India. It is a woman-owned and family-run business. Factory workers are paid fairly. The Lapidary is also an exporter that sells at gem shows in the United States and Japan.

I first met this source at the 2014 Tucson Gem Show. It was my first buying trip for my own store and I was nervous. Most lapidary owners were brisk and impatient with my questions, especially when I asked about the mines and the supply chains. But one man stood out to me as particularly patient and kind. He had been a wholeseller for over twenty years, yet he was happy to meet someone brand-new to the industry.

He took time to talk to me about the stones. They came from his home country of India and he was able to tell me exactly which state or territory each one came from and some of the conditions at the individual mines. When I told him that I wanted to source ethically, he said that it would be difficult, but that it was a worthwhile challenge. He made me feel like I could succeed, both at ethical sourcing and at being a business owner. I looked forward to a long business relationship with him. Sadly, he died suddenly in 2016.

I stayed in touch with his family and in 2017 met his wife, teenage daughter, and his father. This three-generation family has picked up the pieces and learned how to run the business. His wife had never worked before, but she gracefully stepped into her new role as a business owner. Her father-in-law offers practical and moral support, but makes sure that everyone knows that SHE is the boss and that checks should be written directly to her. The family continues to be supportive of my efforts to ethically source. More than any other lapidary, they are willing to speak openly with me about the difficult parts of the industry. They have invited me to visit them in India, to visit the mines and their lapidary. The daughter is now a GIA (Gemological Institute of America) Graduate and is interested in reiki and other healing modalities. As she has grown up, she has become increasingly concerned about ethical issues.

Chrysoberyl Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published September 2016  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 7 minutes
Chrysoberyl is an oxide mineral closely related to Ruby and Sapphire.  It can be green or gold and may demonstrate fantastic special effects in the light.  When cut and polished, it may have a “Cat’s Eye” or chatoyancy in which thin lines of narrow light seem to shift from side to side.  A rare variety of Chrysoberyl called Alexandrite will actually appear to change color, from green in the sunshine to raspberry red at night under incandescent lightbulbs.  All varieties are charming little crystals, full of vim and vigor.  Its energy encourages us to be stop “playing small” in the world and share our unique gifts with the world.

    Absolutely powerful Chrysoberyl! Wonderful communication!

    Such good stuff again visually and energetically. I feel your stuff significantly more than the average crystal.

  5. Paul G. (Hawaii) (verified owner)

    I received my stones today. Thank you, they are perfect – as always! That chrysoberyl is so dank. And when you hold it up to the light, wow.

  6. Cynthia K. (Illinois) (verified owner)

    Lovely! Great seller. Amazing pieces.

  7. Cynthia K. (Illinois) (verified owner)

    I wanted to take a minute to say thank you for the beautiful chrysoberyl pieces. They are amazing and such energy! Thank you.

  8. Megan E. (California) (verified owner)

    Absolutely beautiful piece. No chips completely smooth. I really appreciate that this stone is safe to carry around. The only thing is it does look black unless held up to light where it looks like green glass, such a unique stone.

  9. Victor P. (Maryland) (verified owner)

    Awesome selection. Definitely very unique!

  10. Estelle D. (France) (verified owner)

    Wonderful! Very powerful chrysoberyl, dedicated seller, I recommend Julie’s skills and beautiful stones.

  11. Estelle D. (France) (verified owner)

    I was pleased and inspired by them from the moment I unpacked them. I’ve been wearing the chrysoberyl in my pocket and I felt awesome, way more at peace with myself and people around me than I’ve ever felt in a long time, really connecting to nature and life without “ego thoughts” interfering. It’s a wonderful stone for me, also helping me focus on my projects without being obsessed or discouraged, I really feel its effects.

  12. Lynda G. (Michigan) (verified owner)

    Gorgeous deep green very pretty

  13. Robin S. (South Carolina) (verified owner)

    The Chrysoberyl is even better than described. The best thing behind the scenes in a shop is the owner. This stone has been purchased for “cancer healing for our son.” This seller sent positive healing and and an explanation to our son about the stone. Behind every great product, behind every great shop is a great shop owner.

  14. Gary S. (Hawaii) (verified owner)

    Very quick shipping. A really superb stone; especially when held up to the light. I am very satisfied and I highly recommend this item and this shop.

  15. Angela M. (South Carolina) (verified owner)
