The mineral & metal grimoire
A directory for understanding stones and their correspondences
Composition, formation, identification, traditional symbolism and precautions: each entry helps you explore the mineral world with clear points of reference.
Before you browse
How should you read a mineral entry?
Three levels of reading help distinguish physical characteristics, symbolic traditions and the precautions specific to each material.
Identify the stone
Start with its composition, structure, hardness, lustre and origin. These criteria help identify a stone beyond its colour.
Understand its correspondences
Then explore the symbolism, planets, elements and uses passed down through different traditions, without confusing them with medical effects.
Respect its sensitivity
Water, sunlight, salt and heat do not suit every mineral. Check its hardness, porosity and composition before cleaning it.
