More About Lead Crystal
Lead crystals (sometimes referred to as “crystal” or “leaded glass”) reflect light in wondrous ways, often creating rainbows and sparkles on the wall when the light hits them just right. They are great for hanging in windows or anywhere the light can get to them. Many hang them up to bring more light into their lives and make their surroundings magical. Hanging crystals such as these are termed 'bright objects' in feng shui bringing positive energy into a house and can be hung in spaces that need "energising".

Lead crystal is manufactured by adding lead oxide to molten glass. It is then machine cut into shapes. The higher the lead content the greater the “refractive index”, or in other words, the greater the sparkle. As the lead content goes up it becomes harder to form the crystal and therefore the price for higher lead content also tends to be higher. The maximum lead content is about 35%. The majority of our hanging lead crystals contain 30% PbO, in comparison for example, Swarovski Chandelier crystals are 32% PbO.

More About the Symbolism of the Colour Pink
Colours can affect our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual states, both consciously and unconsciously and can be used to help us feel better.

That’s very much the case with the colour pink, which is one of the most soothing colours in the rainbow. Although it’s widely associated with the feminine – baby girls are commonly dressed in pink – it has immense qualities for everyone. Pink is a very soothing colour, it promotes calm, healing and reminds us about the importance of love.

Pink can be used in spiritual work, as a colour in which you bathe yourself during visualisations or meditations, or you can use pink stones, such as the ever popular rose quartz, in healing work.

If you’re having difficulty loving yourself or recognising the value of self-worth, then holding a pink stone, such as rose quartz, can help promote the qualities of love in your life. A piece of rose quartz placed in the bedroom, or elsewhere in the home, can promote the energies of love to couples, individuals and families.

Pink is often used to adorn the walls of waiting rooms, such as doctor’s surgeries or dentists, in the hope that it will be soothing and ease the nerves of anxious patients. If you want to feel calmer or promote your image as someone who is calm, relaxed and peaceful, then wearing clothing in shades of pink can help project that image. Even if the paler shades of pink aren’t quite to your taste, you can still embrace the essence of pink with darker, more vibrant shades, like fuschia or shocking pink.

A pale pink ribbon has also become the embodiment of the Breast Cancer crusade, with pink ribbons sold and worn by millions of people worldwide to show their solidarity to the cause.
