Chalcedony Specimens and Tumblestones

Chalcedony takes many names, most of which depend upon what colour it is and which patterns it is making, if any. When chalcedony is orange, red, yellow, or brown, we call it carnelian. When chalcedony is green and transparent we call it chrysoprase. When chalcedony swirls in particular patterns within the stone, we call it agate.

​

Scotland has a great selection of chalcedony colours. Greys, pinks, reds, oranges, blue-hues, and purples are all normal here. We collect them from all over, being mindful not to overpick. We then polish these pieces in the rock tumbler to achieve a tumblestone shine. We also resell pre-loved chalcedony crystals and will try and acquire specific types of chalcedony such as blue lace agate, grape agate, and international carnelian in future.

Collecting Rocks

We self-collect minerals for our rock tumbler, buy and sell rough rocks, and purchase secondhand crystal collections.

Polishing Rocks

Once we ethically source rough rocks, we pop them in our rock tumblers and polish them up - or sell them as they are.
