What is an Aura Crystal?

What is an Aura Crystal? + How are they made?

Aura Crystals are natural crystals that have been coated in precious metals to give them a magickal iridescent glow. This glow is what gives them the ‘Aura’ name. 

Aura crystals are created by using a process called vacuum metalising. Now if you’re looking for the exact science, I’m not your girl. Essentially, the precious metal or metals become a vapour that bonds to the surface of the crystal. 

The most commonly used precious metals are  Gold, Silver, Platinum and Titanium and they all give the crystals a different coloured ‘aura’. 

Below is a little bit about the three types of Aura coatings we seem to come across the most.

Angel Aura/Opal Aura - Silver + Platinum Coated

Angel Aura crystals, which can also known as Opal Aura is made when crystals are coated in Silver and Platinum. This gives the crystals a transparent coating that can flash all the colours of the rainbow depending on the direction of the light.

Angel Aura brings a soft, gentle energy encouraging you to calm your mind, relax and connect with the universe.
