The history of using crystals in healing and jewelry goes back thousands of years to the ancient Sumerian and Egyptian civilizations. The depth at which natural crystals occur under the earth gives them clarity and brilliance; however, natural crystals are rare, expensive, and difficult to acquire.

Luckily, crystal glass is an ideal substitute for natural crystal, especially in ornaments and decorations. Recently, traditional crystal glass craftsmanship has been revived in Northern Ireland’s County Tyrone. If crystal glass is widely used, it can reduce natural crystal mining, thus preserving more crystal healing power for our planet.
