In the Dust of the Stars Crystal Crown
In the Dust of the Stars Crystal Crown
In the Dust of the Stars crystal crown is a show-stopping full circle crown of A-grade raw quartz points. The crystal crown that started it all!
Raw quartz points, silvery filigree cones, silver-plated wire.
Transmit the starlight, drink in the sun. Here is a crown arriving straight out of a myth, ready to build a new one. Constructed of raw quartz points on a hammered metal armature, this piece is a balance of raw, elemental power combined with a refined regal shape. As you can see from the photos, the stones catch and hold light: glowing, shining, and reflecting it back out.
Each crystal is selected and wrapped into its perfect place on the piece by hand, a process that ensures each crown will be utterly unique even as it follows the classic silhouette of arcs and peaks. Filigree cones clutch crystals like torches at anchor points in the front, back, and two on each side: the crown itself becomes the six-rayed star.
Made entirely by hand in our Pennsylvania studio, this piece takes 20+ hours of careful work per piece. A real heirloom,
Available in brass upon request.
How to Wear:
The crown is finished with metallic silver ribbon for comfort, and has wire loops incorporated all along the inner diameter of the base for hair pins. The base itself is formed to sit comfortably on the crown of the skull. For added security on fine hair, thread can be woven through the loops to create more points for pinning into whatever style you choose.
NOTE: These stones are raw, rough in spots and clear as water in others. The design of the piece incorporates the natural qualities of each stone into the shape.Each crown is made to order, and will have its own unique look based on the natural crystals.

Materials:
Most Elemental Child pieces are built around natural crystals. These precious items are each unique and have their individual qualities, both aesthetic and energetically. We are careful to design and create pieces that are sturdy and showcase the stones to their advantage. Every piece is made by hand. Most of the our collection are constructed using wire work and hammered metal. This means there is some flexibility to the pieces, and you can adjust the crystals or the base gently to suit you perfectly.
Crystals are sturdier than many other materials, but if they fall on a hard surface, they may well break. Take reasonable care when handling and wearing your piece and it will last to be passed down to generations.
Pricing:
We use the finest natural crystals available. These rare beauties come from all over the world and availability can fluctuate based on a number of factors such as mine output, export regulations, etc. We will always try to offer you the best price based on the materials, but pricing is subject to change without notice.

FAQ
FAQ
++ Frequently Asked Questions ++
Can I order one of your sold out items? Can I order a custom design?
As of November 2021, as we relaunch, we are no longer making each crown to order. The shop updates will include all of the crowns we have currently made and in stock. If you're in love with a sold out design, please let us know! We will do everything possible to include one in the next shop update.
If you are interested in one of our larger full crowns, let us know. In future updates we will be including an option to reserve one of these special, labor intensive beauties.
I've fallen in love with a design but it's sold out! Will it return?
Let us know which piece you're interested in. Our designs sell out frequently due primarily to supply limitations. Using organic, wild stones means continually sourcing from all over the world to find the right crystal to match the original aesthetics. Unfortunately some pieces are sold out for years, or indefinitely, due to the mines and suppliers simply not producing the crystal shape or color anymore. We can look into making more of your favorite piece and including it in the next shop update.
Do you ship to my country?
YES! Everywhere. Please see our Policy page for more information about international shipping.
I just placed my order, when will I receive it?
We are switching over to an all ready to ship model! Our goal is to get your orders packed and in the post within a week of your order.
