This is such an incredible acknowledgement and something that really shows crystals are for EVERYONE! For such a long time, this industry was pigeonholed into the ‘alternative’ sector or not recognised as a mainstream trend and that is changing with us and you! Our Stoners are paving the way and are the true innovators of Crystals for mindful living.

Stoned Crystals are so thrilled to announce that we have been listed as #60 on the Australian Financial Review 100 Fast Starters!

TO OUR AMAZING COMMUNITY
I want to extend this achievement to our incredible community. Thank you to all our amazing Stoners for all your support and company over the duration of our journey. Whether you joined us at the beginning when Jeremy and I were going live from our apartment or have recently found Stoned Crystals, we are so grateful to have such a supportive community behind us without whom this absolutely would not be possible.
THE LIVE SALE STORY
The Live Sales model was born out of a lack of resources and time. One night I was sitting in my apartment about this time before Christmas in 2017. I didn’t have employees or enough time to get stock onto the website for Christmas so I laid 50 crystals out on my kitchen bench and decided to hit the Instagram LIVE button. At that moment a whole new world emerged for the brand. One where we built an incredible strong bond with our customers, had so many laughs and I sold the table over 4 times running back and forth to my bedroom for more stock.
STONED CRYSTAL APP LAUNCHING JAN 2022
Immediately my genius fiance Jeremy started building an app that would better support the workflow for social selling. It has taken the better half of 4 years and we are finally going to be launching to the public in January 2022 to kick off at the TUCSON GEM SHOW. I have so missed being on the live shows and can’t wait to do a live show takeover in our new app whilst we bring some of the biggest rocks in the world to our viewers.
THANK YOU TO OUR LOYAL VIPS
Another giant thank you to our Gold, Platinum and Diamond VIPs who have been test driving this App all year. We have taken your feedback and have built in a whole new design which will include a bunch of new features, a new look and most importantly the ability to stream all shows from within the App starting in the new year!
MY CRYSTAL CONCIERGE
Thank you to my amazing team and my other half Jeremy for making my dreams come true. When I started this company I wanted to create a place that people would wake up and want to come to work every day. I hope I can continue to make Stoned Crystals a place where dreams come true for others too!
Sitting on the knifes edge of Spirituality and Design Stoned hope to continue to make crystal more accessible and more fashionable to mainstream.
