Ethically Sourcing Crystals

Are Your Crystals Ethically Sourced?

In a commitment to ensure that every stone in our shop supports sustainable practices, fair labour and environmental respect, we strive to source all our crystals from ethically mined sources and do this by working only with reputable, reliable, well established, family owned businesses here in the UK who support our ethos.  Over many years we have built up a trusting relationship with these suppliers and know that the companies we have chosen to work with, visit the factories and mines that supply their products, again most are family run,  and where possible have developed relationships with both the families in question and the local communities. These miners in turn, give back to their own local communities, by utilising sustainable practices, ensure fair labour and environmental stewardship and all this is achieved often in countries with a fragile infrastructure and political instability where running a business is more than difficult. 

Sadly, no one  has any way to certify the ten's of thousands of miners and mine owners or the thousands of worldwide crystals importers and wholesalers but we do strive to keep the trade ethical and honest to the best of our ability.
