How to display it
This carving stands on its own base and suits a shelf, altar, or nightstand. Pair it with other heart-chakra pieces, or set it beside a favorite tower or sphere from our spheres collection. Because each angel is hand-finished from natural rock, the exact balance of green epidote and pink feldspar shifts from piece to piece, so the one you receive will be one of a kind and may differ slightly from any single reference photo.
Care & cleansing
Wipe the carving gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth as needed; avoid soaking it or using harsh cleaning chemicals, which can affect the polished finish over time. Dust it periodically the way you would any polished stone display piece, and keep it away from the edge of shelves where it could be knocked and chipped.
Frequently asked questions
What is unakite and what is this angel used for?
Unakite is a mottled green-and-pink stone formed from feldspar, epidote, and quartz. In crystal tradition it's associated with emotional balance and patience, and the angel form is often kept as a symbol of guidance. This is a decorative/symbolic item, not a health product or medical device.
Is this carving water-safe?
A quick wipe with a damp cloth is fine, but avoid soaking it or using harsh chemicals, since the polished surface and any glued elements can be affected by prolonged moisture.
Is it safe to display in sunlight?
Yes, unakite is a durable stone. Extended direct sun can gradually fade the color contrast over time, so a spot out of constant harsh sunlight is best for long-term display.
How do I cleanse and charge it?
A gentle dusting, a rest near (not in) moonlight, or a few minutes near a singing bowl or chime are gentle ways to refresh this piece without wetting it.
How can I tell it's real unakite?
Genuine unakite shows an irregular, natural mottling of green epidote and pink feldspar — no two pieces match exactly. Uniform, perfectly patterned color suggests a dyed or synthetic imitation.
What pairs well with this piece?
Unakite's soft green and pink tones pair naturally with other heart-chakra stones like rose quartz or green aventurine — see more in our home collection.
