Origin of the stone

Lava stone is found in all parts of the world. It is mined exclusively by hand: if the volcano is active, then small pieces of frozen lava are found at the foot. In other deposits, stone deposits are located at depth.

The birth of lava stone is a spectacular and beautiful process. Hot magma from the very depths of the Earth rises up and meets the fresh wind. The result is a fiery explosion: boiling lava hits the ground and then flows into the sea. The cool water soothes and cuts it with its waves, turning it into lava stone.

The material is mined on many islands with active volcanoes. The main supplies come from Iceland and South America. In Russia, lava stone can be found in the Kamchatka Territory.

Use in jewelry and more

Lava stone looks unusual even with minimal processing. Therefore, products with it usually have a laconic and uncomplicated design: the main emphasis in it is the unique texture of the volcanic material. You can see jewelry with an unusual insert on both women and men.

Material used in design:

rosary;
bracelets;
pendants;
earring;
beads

It is best to use gold, silver or jewelry steel to frame the stone.

The porous structure of the mineral allows it to be used in aquariums. It improves water circulation, saturates it with useful microelements and cleanses it of impurities. The high thermal conductivity of lava stone is useful in electrical engineering: it is used to increase heat, as well as to maintain high combustion temperatures in expensive grills.

How to work with stones?

How do the stones chosen for the talisman work? All gems work only with certain forms of energy: some assist in love affairs, others help career success, others act as a talisman against misfortunes, and others are aimed at improving health. Therefore, before selecting a stone, it is necessary to decide which areas the owner wants to improve, and then make his choice based on this.

In this case, you need to choose a crystal that will enhance the energy in the desired area and reduce the negative consequences of karmic effects. But at the same time, it is important to remember that stones are not able to do all the work for its owner; the owner of the gem will have to work on all lagging areas independently, and the stone will only help in achieving the goal.

Magical properties of stones

Any crystals have magical properties, which is why they are used in various esoteric rituals. For example, agate will protect its owner from enemies or ill-wishers and will provide protection from various hidden attacks. The rarest adamite is aimed at correcting karma and strengthening its determination. Azurite is aimed at stimulating a person’s esoteric abilities and has healing qualities.

Jewelry made from faceted amazonite contains power aimed at correcting love karma. When a dark streak has come with your loved one, the gem will help you get through this difficult time with less losses.

People who have any kind of birth trauma need to pay attention to barite, which opens a channel of communication with distant ancestors. Elegant turquoise will help protect your family from betrayal and infidelity.

Before choosing a particular gem by element, you should carefully study its magical qualities, as well as decide on your own desires, on the basis of which you can create your own unique amulet.

Almost every person has a crystal corresponding to their element, which can act as an effective amulet. Based on the proposed criteria, you can choose your own magic crystal for everyone, which will become his faithful life partner. The psychological effect of a gem is determined by its tone, and the magical effect is carried out as a complex. A mineral is a living organism that can have a beneficial effect on a person’s energy and heal him from various ailments.

Features of care and storage

Lava stone is sensitive to mechanical damage. It is easy to break or scratch, so jewelry with an unusual insert needs to be treated with special care. You can clean them yourself using warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Aggressive detergents and cleaners are prohibited.

Jewelry and costume jewelry with lava stone should be stored separately from other jewelry. Be sure to take it off during sports or intense physical activity. These measures will help extend the life of jewelry with lava stone and preserve its color and texture for a long time.
