About CCU
- The Creation -
Hello beautiful people!!
Let me tell you a little about myself and how this business all started. My name is Ebony, I’m 23 and am one of many who had discovered the wonderous world of crystals when they needed it the most! I guess you could say I’m hooked.
I love anything to do with art & design as well as plants & nature. I was definitely an explorer or gatherer in a past life.
There is nothing quite like charging your crystals under the full moon for the first time, walking into your very first crystal shop and being so excitingly overwhelmed you don’t know where to look. Or holding a crystal and being able to feel it’s energy in your hand! Totally indescribable!
I’ve been a collector for years and am still learning new things everyday. I still remember scouring the playground for pretty pebbles and cracking them open to see what I’d find :)
In more recent years I have cultivated a wider variety of skills to allow me to create incredible products for my beautiful customers. Alongside running this small business, I work full time as a metalsmith. Teaching students about the wonderful world of metalsmithing and how to create silver/gold etc jewellery on your own.
I’d love nothing more than the opportunity to build a loving community of likeminded people who share the same passion as I do!
So for those who have stumbled upon my page, whether you’re a witchy gal, a beautiful spiritual baddie, someone who is at the beginning of their crystal journey or you just have an obsession with collecting beautiful rocks… This is an open, safe space for everyone, so welcome!!
- The Mission -
My ultimate goal, when I first decided to start a small online business was to create a store with ranges of both rare and affordable crystals for everyone. I’d love to inspire others to welcome in the wonderful world of crystals & spiritualisation.
Over the years it has grown into so much more than that. Upon discovering my love for metalsmithing, I look forward to see how far i can take this business as well as the beautiful souls I get to meet along the way.
I’m striving to stock crystals to suit collectors and crystal newbies because as much as we’d all like to spend our life savings on crystals… I know it’s not possible for everyone.
I am super excited to bring all of you along for the ride as I learn new things, create unique new designs, attempt to cut & polish crystals, discover new & interesting ways to display your beautiful collections, travel across Australia to hunt & unearth my own treasures.
Being as low waste and eco-friendly as possible is a huge positive when it comes to a small business… especially if you care at all about the planet ;) It’s something I strive towards and aim to become completely waste free over time, as my business and knowledge grows.
Being conciously sourced is a must for me too! There has been countless hours of research gone into not only making sure these crystals are coming from the right places but also the practices and treatment during the unearthing process is humane and safe. xx
