Hand-selected from Hhohho, Eswatini.
It is one of the oldest known gemstones, prized for centuries as a talisman of courage and vitality.
Bloodstone is traditionally a stone for a quiet sense of renewal, a sense of groundedness when things feel uncertain, and staying connected to your body and the moment. It's traditionally linked to the root and heart chakras. If that resonates, keep a piece in your pocket during the day for a steadying presence. Let it become part of your own quiet routine.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
A starting place for your own quiet practice.
