Apache Tears! Choose from two (2) Sizes of Raw, Rough Quality Apache Tears! Natural, Apache Tears Obsidian Stones and Crystals!

Welcome to SunnysSoulStones! Come on in and have a look around!

This is our listing for rough/raw Apache Tears!

We are offering two (2) sizes at this time:

Medium: 0.5” – 1.0”
Large: 1.0” – 1.5”

Here are two fun facts about Apache Tears and one terribly sad fact.

1. Apache Tears are a form of obsidian that is formed when droplets of expelled lava from a volcanic explosion, cool in the atmosphere before they return to Earth,
2. Apache Tears got their name from a horrific event. In the Fall of 1871, seventy-five Apache warriors were trapped, surrounded, and vastly outnumbered by the U.S. Cavalry on one side and open air on the other – overlooking a cliff. Rather than be slaughtered, the Apache chose to ride their horses off the cliff and to their death. The tears of their widows were said to have taken solid form and have become what we know of as Apache Tears.
3. Apache Tears have two other, less well-known, names. They are sometimes called Smoky Obsidian or Marekanite.

We don’t have a single listing that says what we’re about to say and to tell the truth, we feel a little awkward saying this because it benefits us but… Once you do look up the metaphysical information (or you know it already) please think about someone in your life that could benefit from an Apache Tear to keep with them. If you buy more than one Apache Tear from us, we’ll just assume that you’re buying one for someone else too. To get in on the generosity then, anyone who buys two or more will get one (1) free Apache Tear from us as well.

IF YOU ARE NEW TO THE WORLD OF CRYSTALS - PLEASE READ:

We enthusiastically encourage everyone to do their own research including what Sunny calls, ‘an intuitive interview’ with all your crystals. Just as every person has things that make them unique, so too does every crystal. All humans and all Apache Tears have things in common, but they are all individuals as well. Sit with them, be with them – and create an individualized relationship with your crystals. For every different crystal or stone that you order, you’ll find a brief description and some of our observations about the crystals strengths and uses. Rarely more than a paragraph, we keep it brief because we feel like it would be a disservice to spare you the journey. You already have everything you need to know everything there is about your crystal inside of you. Trust yourself! Nevertheless, if you have specific questions, never hesitate to message us.

And now, a few things we think you may wish to know:

1. We can’t truly live for ourselves until we truly live for all.
2. You may have noted that we always start this section with a quote. The reason that we don’t credit anyone is because they are all our personal sayings. Though we tend to use a different quote for every stone, we do share the same quote within families – i.e., all Jaspers, all Quartz, all Calcites, etc.
3. Regarding our photos: We are brand new to photography. All our photos are taken with an Android phone that has a non-working flash. We take all of our photos in a lightbox and then convert them to high definition to compensate for this. Our crystals are all photographed dry – never wet. Lastly, all our photographic efforts are to designed to represent our products as honestly as we can.
4. All sizes/weights are estimates that are made in good faith. Lengths are calculated by measuring the longest side.
5. Before an order is shipped it sits on our alter during our thirty-minute morning meditation during which we dedicate Metta to the order heading to you. If for any reason, or even no reason, you would prefer we don’t do this with your order, please let us know so we can respect your wishes.
6. In every way that matters, we are all brothers and sisters awaiting the family reunion. Until then, if no one has told you they love you today, know that we do.

If you have ANY questions, requests, suggestions, etc., please do not hesitate to message us. Thank you for stopping by; we’re grateful for every visit, even if you don’t buy anything.
