Definition-
A concise explanation of the meaning of a word or phrase or symbol.
Crystal
"A crystal or crystalline solid is a sold material whose constituents (such as atoms, molecules, or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions. In addition, macroscopic single crystals are usually identifiable by their geometrical shape, consisting of flat faces with specific, characteristic orientations. The scientific study of crystals and crystal formation is known as crstallography. The process of crystal growth is called crystallization or solidificaion."
Piezoelectricity
"Piezoelectricity is the electric charge that accumulates in certain solid materials (such as crystals, certain ceramics, and biological matter such as bone, DNA and various proteins) in response applied mechanical stress. The word piezoelectricity means electricity resulting from pressure and latent heat. It is derived from the Greek word πιέζειν; piezein, which means to squeeze or press, and ἤλεκτρον ēlektron, which means amber, an ancient source of electric charge."
Pleochroism
"An optical phenomenon in which a substance has different colors when observed at different angles, especially with polarized light."
".. an extremely useful tool in mineralogy and gemology for mineral and gem identification, since the number of colors visible from different angles can identify the possible crystalline structure of a gemstone or mineral and therefore help to classify it. Minerals that are otherwise very similar often have very different pleochroic color schemes. In such cases, a thin section of the mineral is used and examined under polarized transmitted light with a petrographic microscope."
About the Creator
I was born in Tlaxcala, Calpulalpan, Mexico in 1991 & came to the United States at the age of 3. Since then, I have resided in Northern California in the beautiful Bay Area, moving between San Leandro, Oakland & Hayward.
I started collecting & having an interest in crystals as a child, with your basic beginner stones such as Amethyst, Quartz & Pyrite. I went dormant with collecting until my late teens, early twenties & picked them back up at the perfect moment where my life needed them the most! A Labradorite pebble & I found an instant connection one day in the streets of Berkeley (on Telegraph to be exact) & from there my collection & connection to these crystals & energy around me grew.
I originally began wire wrapping officially in March 2020 as a side hobby, to be able to provide interested friends & family protective & healing jewelry. As the months passed, I had more & more requests for different crystals & stones so I began to source crystals for friends & family, incorporated them into my business but mainly have kept focus on why I began, & continue to work on protective & healing jewelry as requested. Thanks to my DRAC family, I’ve also gained an interest not only in the healing properties but the aesthetic properties in crystals too.
Why healing jewelry & crystals? I believe that everything is energy, & energy is everything. I believe that everything is connected. Because our bodies & souls sometimes go through traumatic situations, grief, loss & so many emotions that sometimes can get out of control, crystals hold certain properties/energies either by color or by composition, that can aid us and in turn help us feel better to where we can “heal” from whatever dis-ease we are having.
Why protective jewelry & crystals? Because everything is energy, and energy is everything!! There is true evil out there seen and unseen. I LOVE making protective jewelry. Protective jewelry is made to protect the energy of the wearer. We never know the true intentions towards us from the people around us, so my jewelry is intended to protect the wearer from negative vibes, “spells”, & for overall blockage of “evil”. Crystals can be placed around your home or desired space to clear and harmonize the energy around them. Also, CRYSTALS ARE BEAUTIFUL 😍
