Stone library

Raw gemstones by candlelight — the Mad Monk stone library

Every natural stone has its own story: a traditional meaning, an origin, and centuries of history. In this library, you can read about what each stone has traditionally symbolised — honestly and without promises.


Honesty about meaning: the characteristics on this page describe what this stone has traditionally symbolised and what it is associated with within traditions and astrology. Mad Monk Jewelry makes no claims: we do not promise that a stone has a specific effect or power, or that it will bring about anything for you. What we do promise: a natural gemstone, carefully selected and hand-finished.
