Happy Thanksgiving!
Greetings,

It was so good to see everyone at the Denver Trunk Show. Thanks to all who helped us make this trunk show the best yet! Now begins the fun of sharing with everyone all the new treasures we found. We are restocking daily, so visit frequently!

Oc tober was a very busy month for us. A great big thanks to my sister for helping us at the Metaphysical Fair while she was visiting. Hopefully you were able to see our displays in the front entry of Palmer Auditorium for the Austin Gem and Mineral Show. Fossilmania in Glen Rose, Texas was as enjoyable as ever. We were able to buy some local Texas specialties including natural pyritized shells and multi-colored Septarian, both found in the Dallas area. 
A special shout out to our neighboring vendor Smiledon.  Craig Nesbit entertained us this year with a remarkable  reading of "The Raven" in the Glen Rose graveyard Saturday night.

We're off to the Houston Gem & Mineral Show Nov 9th-11th. Please come buy and say 'Hi' if you find yourself in the neighborhood. Be sure to note in your calendar our Customer Appreciation sale is actually the weekend BEFORE Thanksgiving this year, Nov 17th & 18th. In addition to having extra inventory stocked throughout the store for those of you getting ahead on your holiday shopping, everyone will have a chance to select a gift box from our treasure chest. Inside each box is a stone and a coupon for a discount off all your purchases that weekend from 20% - 50%.  This is a great opportunity to start finding those unique holiday gifts that everyone loves so much at a fabulous discount.

Hope all of you had a bodacious Halloween. It's always good to explore that alter ego every now and then. It always seemed strange to me that it takes an official holiday to remind people to be thankful. This year I've decided I'm going to be most thankful for Thanksgiving. At least once a year, everyone is reminded how important it is to have thankfulness in our lives and what it feels like to be filled with thankful energy.



Blessings,
Karen Richards & The Staff

I see hundreds of fallen leaves on my walks through the forest to and from my studio.  Now I collect, dry them in big books, and then print them onto silver.  There are so many different kinds of leaves and flowers and mosses, butterfly wings and feathers, so many birds and bats and forest animals!  I could never run out of inspiration from Nature!"   
     ~Marie-Chantal Nadeau, Jewelry Artist and Creator
 
We had an opportunity to visit with one of our jewelry artisans, Marie-Chantal Jewelry Design (Vendor #471), during the International Denver Gem & Mineral Show this past September. We fell in love with her nature-inspired line, "Earth," and this year she expanded her Earth Collection. We happily returned with new designs and replenished some of the originals!  Her designs caught the attention of the Lapidary Journal, one of the leading jewelers' magazines in the U.S., and were featured on the cover in the June 2017 edition.  "Marie-Chantal's collections pirouette from uber-modern, to Zen-inspired, to botanical, entomological and paleontological, to Cartier-style high fashion and back, without a faux pas in between," says Terry Haag, writer for Lapidary Journal Jewelry Artist Magazine.
 
Dante Alighieri said over 600 years ago that "Nature is the art of God" and, in The Divine Comedy, that Nature is the offspring of God.  One could extrapolate from these expressions that, as offspring of God ourselves, our own art is like God's grandchild.  Just as children often mimic or copy the things they see and admire, so too do artists find inspiration from Nature, which in turn brings joy to others.  This is especially true of Marie-Chantal, who creates each piece by hand in her Costa Rican rainforest studio, from design to production to distribution.  Her artwork is one of the truest forms of celebration of the Divine, inspired by and created within Nature.  Please visit us at Nature's Treasures to read more about her in our store copy of Lapidary Journal Jewelry Artist. Thanks!

Austin Agates Exclusive

Picture jasper from the Owyhee valley in Oregon. We carry the rough material that this was cut from.
It is Wild Horse Jasper.


   
Notes on Agates:  
Silica is the key component to agate formation since it belongs to the quartz family made up of SiO2.  Because of their beauty and durability, agates have been used since the Neolithic as tools, jewelry, tableware and decor for thousands of years. Although agate has been used for ages, new world agates have only been mined recently and many varieties are mined out.

Topaz

This beautiful stone is said to increase feelings of love, affection and strength. It can also help to support creative ideas and a clear mind.

Topaz is a great stone for those who are just starting to meditate as it can also help to clear and release thoughts. It is also great for teachers and students as it helps to promote learning and an open mind.

Topaz comes in a variety of colours, so when choosing the stone that is right for you, go with your intuition.
Topaz is the perfect stone to use when you need help with accepting things in your life. Topaz can help you to feel at peace with whatever life is bringing you. It can also help you regain strength and courage after a setback.

Topaz is also great for manifesting wealth and abundance. If topaz is too expensive to purchase, you can also substitute with citrine.
