Thank you, thank you, thank you! My beautiful crystals came yesterday. The tektites feel so good, as does the Libyan desert glass. I like the pietersite and eudialyte has become a favorite. I have gifted crystals purchased from you. Every recipient loves them. Thank you so much!!

This Pietersite was comes from a mine in Nanyany, China.

This gem dealer is a female-owned business that specializes in large Amethyst geodes. The business also sells a few stones polished in China.

I first met this source at the 2006 Tucson Gem Show. At that time, I was working for a crystal shop in Utah and was at Tucson primarily as a “pack mule” to help carry all the stones. The business specializes in exquisite Amethyst geodes and large stone statues. The owner is an energy-worker who has worked with many celebrities. Since they didn’t carry tumbled stones, I took no note of them when I started my own business.

In 2018, my usual source for Black Tourmaline was sold out and I happened to run into my old boss. She quietly gave me a wink and a nod, and sent me to “the statue tent.” While their basic business had not changed, they now sell a variety of small polished stones as well. The amount of middlemen involved does give me pause. I only purchase stones from this source if I can’t find the stone elsewhere and I am confident about mining and lapidary conditions in the country of origin.

Pietersite Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published May 2018  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 5 minutes
Pietersite is a rare multicolored crystal closely related to Tigers Eye.  Both stones get their coloring when a naturally blue stone is exposed to the air, and the iron inside oxidizes red and then eventually transforms into a golden stone.  For Tigers Eye, this process is smooth and creates straight stripes in a single color.  Pietersite is created when a geological disturbance causes the stone to be folded, fractured, and woven back together.  Instead of monochromatic stirpes, a kaleidoscope of shifting colors appears.  Pietersite is a stone of new beginnings.  Its energy helps us feel steady during times of chaos, conflict, and change.

    Super fun stone – love it even more than expected!

  3. Angela N. (Rhode Island) (verified owner) –

    My first piece of pietersite, beautiful! Very thankful. My order came with a velvet bag (which happened to be in my favorite color, purple!), information on ethics and cards for each stone, a pen, and a yummy tea blend. Thank you so much!

  4. Janet N. (Texas) (verified owner) –

    Thank you so much for your help through this process. I’m excited to welcome them into my life. I’ve waited 7 years for the right stones. I’m both excited and a little nervous to see where the journey takes us.

  5. Estelle V. (France) (verified owner) –

    I just received it and am already amazed at its energy :) I can’t wait to work with it!!!
