There are all sorts of ways in which you can choose to decorate your home, but if it’s a unique sense of luxury and refinement that you’re keen to achieve, there’s no better way to do just that than with a beautiful display of rare crystals.
Crystals, gems and fossils will always prove to be an interesting talking point for guests, but you’re also sure to derive a huge amount of pleasure and satisfaction from surveying your display day by day, week by week.
But what investments to make? If you’re looking for unique crystals that aren’t likely to be found elsewhere, here are just three of the rarest stones to be found on earth. Which of these could you see sparkling on the sideboard at home?
Ammolite is a really interesting organic gemstone that looks rather like an opal with its shimmering iridescent aesthetic, primarily found in the Rocky Mountains of North America. It’s actually made from the fossilised shells of sea organisms and can date back at least 65 million years!
There are so many different opals to be found in various parts of the world and they’re all stunning in their own right, but black opals are perhaps the most sought after because they are so rare, characterised by a darker tone that ranges from dark grey to almost total black.
For a bright addition to your crystal display unit, you’ve simply got to invest in the red beryl, which can be found in Utah and some parts of New Mexico.
It’s a gorgeous red cherry colour, which makes it stand out from the crowd, but what makes it so very rare is that it can only be formed in a singular geochemical environment.
In fact, it’s thought that there is only one crystal of red beryl to be found for every 150,000 gem-quality diamonds!
