Chrysocolla, a hydrous copper silicate. Turquoise to teal coloration from copper content, often intergrown with quartz for added stability.

Where does it come from?

This batch is from Kunene, Namibia.

Grade AA, blue, green. Each piece 0.50-1.50 inches.

Untreated. The chrysocolla-in-quartz variety is more durable than pure chrysocolla.

What is it traditionally used for?

Chrysocolla is often kept nearby during demanding stretches as part of an unhurried daily practice. Traditionally associated with the throat, heart chakra.

How should I care for it?

Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Soft (Mohs 2.5 to 3.5); handle gently and avoid water and chemicals.

What does a crystal grade (A, AA, or AAA) actually mean?

Crystal grades reflect visual quality within a single batch. Grade A is standard quality with typical inclusions. Grade AA shows stronger color saturation, cleaner surface, and tighter sizing. Grade AAA represents the top 10 to 15 percent of any batch: exceptional clarity, consistent color, and minimal surface variation. At Beyond Bohemian, grades are assessed by Paul Oliver at point of purchase.

Mohs Hardness: 2-4 (pure); 5-7 (silicified)
Origin: Kunene, Namibia
Beginner Friendly: Yes
Treatment Awareness: Medium (stabilization possible)

Chrysocolla is a vivid turquoise-to-teal green-blue, often found with malachite or quartz. It's soft on its own, so much of the material on the market is stabilized in a quartz matrix that makes it durable enough to wear. The name comes from Greek 'chrysos' and 'kolla' because it was historically used as a soldering flux for gold.

This piece comes from Kunene, Namibia. This is a softer mineral (2-4 (pure); 5-7 (silicified) Mohs). Dry storage, gentle handling, and don't let it knock around with quartz or tourmaline. Worth knowing: a lot of the chrysocolla on the market is stabilized. What we carry is natural and untreated.

In the tradition, chrysocolla shows up most often around working through difficult feelings at your own pace, quiet, steady calm, and opening to connection, with yourself and others. It's traditionally linked to the throat and heart chakras. If that resonates, hold it for a few breaths before a conversation that matters. Trust what feels useful and leave the rest.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
