Very nice lovely crystal too. How's the point on it? A lot of the ones I find are chipped on the tip. Have yo do a lot of sifting thru to pick out a couple nice ones. Where do you find these?

Thanks, i've gotten my crystals so far from a nice little metaphysics shop on the hudson river (i'm from NY). A LOT of sifting is required to find nice pieces to wrap as i don't yet have the knowledge to shape my own stuff. Unfortunately the point is a little chipped but overall the shape of the crystal is very visually appealing. i love the horizontal striations.

very unusual wrap, and yet it seems to flow with the piece to a degree and thus enhances it!! I like it !! thanx for sharing!!

Hi neighbor I'm in ct. Reshaping the chipped tips isn't difficult, just time consuming if you don't have power tools to do the job. Personally I leave my chipped tips alone. From a metaphysical perspective you shouldn't mess with the tips... that's where all the energy focuses so I leave mine alone, if they are chipped they're chipped by no fault of my own, if people are buying my jewelry because of the metaphysical properties of the stones tampering with the tips degrades the effectiveness of the healing abilities of the crystal - and I can't mislead people by not disclosing something like that, especially since it's dealing with transfers of energy from a product I'm providing to a person looking for healing energy. Feel like I'd be sending them dirty energy ..... idk if you believe in all this or not, just how I look at it and how someone who thinks about crystals this way will most likely see it . If you want advice in shaping crystals message me. I recently received a bunch of crystals this woman attempted to tumble. There is this crystal called a super 7 ( trademarked) and these crystals had a lot of the mineral composition that stone has. Some were pretty big and one of the minerals is geothite which is not transparent so hides the color of the amethyst portions, so I broke them up and want to make points out of them since they were already messed up from a bad tumble. Trying to salvage their esthetics. Sry I rambled .... Beautiful crystal and great wrap!

I am a huge believer that the crystal as is should be displayed and try to wrap them in a way that displays the crystals in a way that is aesthetically pleasing and does not take away from the crystal's beauty. thanks for your interest and response
