Crystals

Every crystal is a miracle

the nature

My passion

Even as a child, I was fascinated by special stones. Again and again they drew me into nature. Anything that was shiny or had a special shape was collected.

Later I went looking for crystals with a friend. With the help and knowledge of his father, who is an experienced spotlight himself, we went on our first tours. After the first discoveries in a beautiful crevice, it was over for me and I was bitten by the radiation bug.

The unique beauty of the individual crystals captivated me. The feeling when the crystals see the light of the earth for the first time and they begin to sparkle is indescribable. They can now fully reveal their beauty, which has been hidden in the darkness for millions of years, in daylight. The uniqueness of each individual crystal never ceases to amaze me and when I am allowed to uncover the secret of a chasm, it is a gift from nature and fills me with happiness and awe of its creator.

Every chance I have and if the weather and snow permits, I go to the mountains. Every tour is a unique experience, even if the fog is thick or a rain front gets you wet. As soon as the crystals are washed at home and they shine in all their splendour, the stresses such as cold, wet and bruised fingers are quickly forgotten.

In the end, the finder and the crystal compete to shine.

If the journey to accommodation or the car is too far in the evening, I have a tent.

When the rock begins to shine

A beautiful smoky quartz claster with some stunning crystals. Due to the limited space available, great caution is required. Lying on your stomach on the glacier with the cold wather dripping on your neck, this is a strenuous place to work.
