Black Obsidian Crystal Skull ‘Ornate’

Black Obsidian Crystal Tombstone 

$49.95

A black obsidian artefact shaped like a tombstone, featuring a skull and crossbones, is often used for active protection, ancestral veneration, and as a memento mori, symbolising the cycle of life and death. Black obsidian is valued for its protective and grounding qualities. Its deep black colour is believed to absorb negative energy and shield against psychic attacks. For this reason, practitioners place obsidian artefacts near doors or windows to protect the home from unwanted influences. With a tombstone shape, the skull-and-crossbones emblem adds ritual significance and serves as a reminder of mortality. This concept, summed up in the Latin phrase memento mori, encourages reflection on the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth rather than being morbid. Often called the stone of the ancestors, this black obsidian tombstone measuring 8cm high, 6.5cm wide, and 3cm deep, may help facilitate a connection with those who have passed and may act as a focal point on an ancestor altar.   Specifications Description: Black Obsidian Crystal Tombstone Material: Natural Black Obsidian crystal Dimensions: H8cm x W6.5cm x D3cm, approximately PLEASE NOTE: This crystal is a natural product and may vary in shape, colour, and size.

Chiastolite Crystal ‘Tumble’

$14.95

Chiastolite is a unique variety of the mineral andalusite, famously known as the "Cross Stone". It is distinguished by its natural, black, cross-shaped inclusions made of graphite, which form a geometric pattern visible when the stone is sliced. Historically, chiastolite served as a protective amulet and, in the 16th century, gained reverence as a religious symbol thanks to its natural cruciform pattern. In contemporary Wiccan practices, chiastolite functions as a stone for protection, grounding, and balance. In spells for major life changes or at "crossroads," practitioners rely on chiastolite to foster clarity, resolve conflict, and dispel fear of the unknown. Measuring between 2-to-2.5cm in diameter by 2-to-3cm deep and sold individually, these naturally formed chiastolite crystals, when set at the altar's centre, are said to repel negativity, foster stability, and radiate harmony throughout the home.   Specifications Description: Chiastolite Crystal, rough Material: Natural Chiastolite crystal Dimensions: Diameter 2-2.5cm x depth 2-3cm, on average PLEASE NOTE: This crystal is a natural product and may vary in shape, colour, and size.
