How do you get your crystals? Are they ethically sourced?


It is important that everything we bring to Dual Crossroads is ethically sourced, even with things that are hard to track--like crystals. It is also important that YOU should know where they are coming from. We hope one day to be certified in ethical/fair trade, but sadly there is no Official Ethical Crystal Foundation to regulate international and enforce fair trade and eco-practices for crystals. At least not yet.

 

That is why we're doing things from the ground up. We've committed to only working directly with the mines themselves or with those who only work directly with reputable ones. We chose only those who can say they are ethical in their work practices+trade+environmental securities. We ask where the crystals come from, where they have their lapidaries and carvings are done (and by who), and if the mines someone owns/works with are ethical in their work and labor. 


You should know this information, too. That is why we are doing an ongoing project where we are road-mapping our crystals and adding this information to our online store. As of Fall 2020, we are adding this information whenever there is moment to spare (but you can always email/call/come in person to ask so you don't have to wait!). We are excited for when this project gets completed and are happy share with you the entire life of the stone from earth to your pocket.

​

We do this because we care about where our crystals, bowls, jewelry, herbs, etc come from. We want to ensure that everything we provide has a positive background, and that we aren't inadvertently causing harm to others or the earth by supporting something that is less than reputable. You should be able to shop in comfort and security, and that includes your stone choices, 

 

Thank you for asking this question! Never be afraid to ask it!
