  • Crystals To Help You Sleep

    So many of us are chronically sleep deprived due to a myriad of reasons – stress, over-stimulation from television, computers and phones, poor exercise and eating habits, etc.; I have never been a great sleeper and in fact am perfectly happy and energetic operating on......

  • Inspiration: Enduring Splendor Exhibition at the Fowler Museum

    I recently went to an exquisite little exhibit at the Fowler Museum at UCLA called “Enduring Splendor – Jewelry of India’s Thar Desert”. If you’re a fan of big, chunky, “ethnic” looking jewelry (for lack of a better term) as I obviously am, and/or if......

  • Six Stones to Start Off Your Crystal Collection

    If you’re new to the fascinating world of crystals you can quickly become overwhelmed by the breadth and depth of all there is to learn and know. I, for one, have been fascinated by stones for essentially my entire life, and felt myself to be......

My Top Five Picks From the 2017 Tucson Gem Show

The Tucson Gem Show was a blast, and even though I was less overwhelmed than I thought I was going to be as I mentioned in my last blog post, we covered an enormous amount of ground and saw many truly incredible crystals of all shapes, sizes and colors.

What I ended up bringing home was highly curated in terms of each individual being the right size and shape so as to eventually be made into an NVision Power Piece and I love and resonate with each and every one of them. But I want to give you a sense of the specialness of some of the most breathtaking pieces. It’s so hard to choose between all my juicy goodies, but I felt that these really stand out:

  1. Herkimer Diamonds – These actually were never a favorite of mine until I saw them in this size and with this coloration – so much going on in each of these. Herkimers are said to foster soul healing and evoke love and light.

  1. Charoite – These gorgeous purple stones with black and white markings are hard to fine, certainly in this form, and are from Russia. They are said to transmute negativity and ground to the spiritual self.

  1. Rutilated Citrine – Citrines are about abundance on all levels and the rutilation serves to amplify that energy.

  1. Smokey Quartz – Quite unusual in this palm stone shape, Smokey Quartz is a major protection stone in addition to transmuting negativity.

  1. Quartz with Chlorite Inclusions – Chlorite carries powerful healing energies which are amplified by the Quartz.

These will all be transformed into NVision by Nicole Foos Power Pieces in the very near future. Let me know if one of them calls to you and I’ll be happy to make a custom version just for you. Contact me for more info.
