Amazing Gemstone Angelite Crystals and Healing Stones - Large Palm Stone Crystals Piedra - Crystal for Good Luck, Balanced Positive Energy, Meditation - Unique Stocking Stuffers, Gifts for Women

I bought this Blue Apatite palm stone to help me along in a weight loss journey. I’m a novice with crystals and using them for healing purposes; I often just buy them for fun but they generally end up being home decor. And this one is very pretty and decor-worthy! The color is a rich, beautiful deep ocean blue with caramel clouds. It has a nice heavy weight and the size is comfortable. But when it arrived and I took it out of the package, for the first time ever I immediately felt that “vibration” that everyone is always talking about with crystals. I placed it under the moonlight for a night and asked it to please help me meet my goal of losing 10 lbs this month by helping me to control my cravings and appetite. But I don’t even know if I had to do that.All month I carried it around in my purse with me and kept it on my nightstand while I slept. I did my usual weight loss routine of eating smaller portions of lower calorie foods, walking more, etc. All was going fine, and almost halfway into the fourth week, I had lost 7.6 lbs. I knew I wasn’t gonna meet my goal of 10, but 7.6 is plenty and I was totally happy with that and proud of myself. But the universe and this friggin rock had other ideas.On Tuesday night, I decided to order sushi for dinner. And at 3am on Wednesday morning, I awoke to find myself staring down the barrel of the most violent bout of food poisoning I’ve ever experienced in my life. For 36 hours, my body ejected everything that had ever been inside of me, including my soul. Today is day 30 and I’m down 10.4 lbs from my starting weight. I can say with 100% sincerity that my appetite is now under control. Thanks for reading and proceed with caution.

very nice stone, love it.

I like it

Beautiful stone

I didn’t know about the authenticity of the vendor’s products when I made my first purchase, and was so delighted by it, that I’ve bought a number of other crystals/gemstones from them. The black onyx is gorgeous and it, like the other stones I’ve ordered from them, has a really good energy (even after making it through Amazon shipping to my home). I mostly order from Amazing Gemstones and one other vendor now. Even though the other vendor offers stones of a higher technical grade, I prefer Amazing Gemstones. Gorgeous, genuine products.

Ruby has a pretty nice streaks and spots of red I honestly don’t mind. It is small as it says so they’re true with that.

As I stated in the title, the iolite is not actually a palm stone, but a small thumb worry stone. While the item description and images show a stone that is 1.5-2” in length and about 0.5” in thickness and smooth/puffy all around, the item I received was just a bit over 1.25” in length and 0.25” in thickness- flat with a carved thumbprint in it. Palm stones don’t have thumbprint dips in them, and they are larger than a thumbprint. If you go to the Amazing Gemstone website and search for “iolite worry stone”, that is what I actually received. The images posted with Google are deceiving, as they show a palm stone taking up a larger portion of a person’s hand, but the actual stone is just enough to cover my thumb and very thin. It would be nice if it were labeled, described, and priced based on what it actually is.At first I thought it was an error and reached out to Amazon for a replacement, but the replacement they sent is exactly the same, so it is just an inaccurate description. It is a lovely piece of iolite, but less than half of the size expected from the description. So my star rating reflects that.That said, I have ordered other items from this company that are as described, including the nellite, peach moonstone, and ruby kyanite, and those all came as described. So this may be an issue specific to this particular stone variety. If I were rating based only on the other varieties, it would be at an 4 or 5. The hackmanite dies change color in the sun- by the way, which is pretty cool, but only a small portion changed.All items with a lovely black velvet pouch.

I will be returning it. It’s very pretty but its energy doesn’t warrant the price. I love my crystals but this one has an “expensive rock” vibe.
