Do you believe in the energies of crystals.

For instance Moonstone stimulates confidence

and balances the emotions.

Hi Nemo,
Absolutely! A firm believer in stones, not necessarily crystals. I wear amber myself, which is neither a stone or a crystal really, but apparently aids in healing. A few friends of mine wear different types of stones, and touch wood, none of us got sick even though our kids were quite sick with various ailments.
Maybe it's mind over matter, who knows, either way it can't hurt. Alternative therapy has its uses.
Cheers, Mel...

Many years ago I did lapidary for some time and I had some humongous quartz crystals as well as sapphires, zircons, topaz etc and large collection of assorted other crystals.

The only benefit I had was from the sapphires I sold.

As for a mood change or other effects there is no scientific evidence to suggest the crystals give any benefit.
Whether it be true or only a placebo effect if it makes someone happy (other than the seller and their exorbitant prices) then there is no harm.

Doug.

Thanks! I will run it by the kids but I donÂt see them being interested in these. Anyway I have my MomÂs and my GrandmaÂs, both nicer, to divide up if they should be interested someday (2 kids, should work out! Though they are 18 and 21: it might be a long wait). Thanks for the Replacements site. Now I know the name of my pattern, "Antique", and know what they sell it for. Also found out my "wine" glasses are not really wine glasses, but champagne/sherbet glasses. Good for marketing!

@J w I got the floors at Nara Tile in Dublin and I worked with the owner, Ceren. She helped me pick out my back splash and fireplace surround. She was excellent to work with and even showed me her pricing, and allowed me to compare other shops with hers. She had a fair price and lots of expertise. We will continue to use their services when we redo the next part of our house. Good luck with your remodel.

when placing a crystal cut glass drop in sink should I paint inside of

Depends on how bright of lights your planning on putting underneath as well as their size, & shape. How much reflection do you want? White,silver,off white , ? Maybe even use a frosting spray paint on bottom of sink or etching paste for glass will give the frosted look to the bottom of sink so you can't actually see thru it and will make for a softer lighted look. With the carving the etching should accent the grooves,etc of the carving. Try on a carved glass plate or something similar first to make sure how it's going to look first. Jmo.

Are these candlesticks actually the Tiffany Style Hexagon Crystal
Q

There is a pair of candlesticks for sale on Charish that appear to be the same as yours. You can find the them by putting the exact wording you used in your title into their search bar. They are being offered for sale for $130 but they are taking offers. Charish is frequently wildly overpriced and can give a false expectation on the value of items. Keep in mind they are not made by Tiffany but are Tiffany styled, which means they were made to resemble a Tiffany like style. Chairish estimates they were made in the 1980's.
