Burning Candles Season

The clocks go back on Sunday, 30th October 2011 which means darker evenings.  Brighten your home with candlelight.  Burning tea lights is a very popular past time; they can often look quite dull though, so why not set yours off in a stunning Amethyst Cluster Tea Light Holder.   This tea light holder is a great way to lighten up your room and enjoy the crystal energy of Amethyst clusters.  Alternatively, the soft pink glow from a tea light burning inside a Natural Rose Quartz Tea Light Holder is said to bring the wonderful properties of love, support and understanding to your home.

Inexpensive Crystal Pendants

Crystal pendants make lovely gifts but they need not be expensive. Here at Crystal Age we have a great choice of pendants that are inexpensive but beautiful. These pendants are inexpensive because we don’t pass on costs to you, not because they are anything less than top quality. These crystal pendants are a lovely way to benefit from the healing power of crystals, find a stylish gift or simply brighten up your outfit. Whether you are looking for a present or just fancy a little treat for yourself, these pendants are a fabulous option.

Swivel Crystal Pendants

These swivel crystal pendants may look simple but they are perfect for accessing the healing power of the crystals they feature. The design leaves the maximum amount of the crystal’s surface free and in contact with your skin. Having skin contact with a healing crystal is believed to maximise the healing effect, allowing energy to flow directly from the crystal into your body. This makes these pendants a great choice if you wish to access the healing energy of the crystal – and of course they look very stylish too! This style of pendant is available in twelve different crystals and costs just £2.99.

New Heart Shaped Crystal Beads

Here at Crystal Age we love our crystal beads and we have just added a great new range of heart shaped crystal beads. These beads come in two varieties – side drilled and top drilled. The former have a hole that passes laterally through the bead – like the fluorite beads below – and the latter have a hole at the top of the heart – like the tiger eye beads below. The side drilled beads are better for making necklaces where the beads lie side by side, whereas the top drilled beads are better for designs where the bead will drop down. You can also wear both types of crystal beads as simple pendants – just string one on a cord or chain.

Latest Heart Shaped Crystal Beads

We have these new heart shaped crystal beads in ten different crystal varieties: amethyst, blue tiger eye, carnelian, fluorite, mookaite, new jade, opalite, quartz, rose quartz and tiger eye. They start at £5.99 and they make a great choice for making jewellery and crystal collecting.
