Chrysocolla
“The peacemaker. Hold in the palm to soothe emotional wounds, encourage compassionate speech, and honour feminine wisdom.”
About Chrysocolla
Chrysocolla is a soft hydrous copper silicate, often found with malachite and turquoise. Its teal and cyan shot through with gold looks like an aerial view of a tropical bay. Its Greek name means 'gold glue' — it was once used to solder gold.
Sacred to the goddess Isis and to the feminine healers of the Andes and the Himalayas. Considered a crystal of the priestess.

How to Identify a Real Chrysocolla
Common fakes: Dyed glass, plastic, or less valuable stones passed off as the real thing.
How to tell the real thing: Real crystals are heavier than glass or plastic of the same size, stay cool to the touch, and usually show natural inclusions or colour zoning — too-uniform colour is a warning sign. Buy from trusted sources and ask the seller about origin and treatment.
