Rhyolite is believed to strengthen the mind, body and soul and is useful for past-life healing. It is thought to help us to process the past and integrate it with the present, bringing us peace of mind by teaching us to live in the moment. It may aid in bringing insight and resolution to difficulties, stimulating solutions and promoting forward movement in life. Furthermore, it is believed to enhance self-esteem, self worth, self respect and deepens the acceptance of our true self. It may help us to heal old emotional wounds and deal with challenging circumstances calmly and with inner strength. It is used to aid communication with animals and the realm of Nature.
Also called Rainforest Rhyolite, Rainforest Jasper, Australian Rainforest Jasper. It is in fact a volcanic rock often patterned in colours of green, cream, brown and yellow. In the 1860's, the German traveller and geologist Ferdinand von Richthofen coined the name Rhyolite after finding it in his explorations of the Rocky Mountains. Rhyolite has been mined since prehistoric times in Pennsylvania in the USA, where fifty small quarry pits have been found.
It's important to note that the geological formation of rhyolite can occur in various volcanic settings, including calderas, stratovolcanoes, and volcanic domes. The specific conditions during magma generation and eruption, as well as the subsequent geological processes, contribute to the diverse textures and appearances seen in rhyolite formations around the world. Rhyolite can be found in Australia, Germany, Spain, Iceland, Ireland, New Zealand, India, China and the USA.

Jewellery Warranty & Care
When crafted into jewellery, some crystals are more hardy than others.
For everyday wearers, we recommend crystals that fall in the Quartz family or have a Moh's hardness level of over 5.5-6.
Avoid excessive water exposure, especially in pools or the ocean and any harsh chemicals.
Delicate crystals like Amber, Moonstone, Opal, and iron-based meteorites need gentle handling due to potential discolouration or structural risks. These are best as occasion pieces.
Store safely, and clean with care.
Rest assured that our 1-year jewellery warranty covers any manufacturing defects.
