You know the story…went into the crystal shop for one stone, came out with 10 others PLUS this magical ring the jeweler pulled out from a pouch behind the counter of her own handmade collection. It went on my finger to “ya know, just try real quick…” and probably ain’t coming off for a good long while!

The stone is called dragon’s breath, and while confused with Mexican fire opal, it’s actually cut glass from the Czech republic from the early 1900s. The stone just lights up and looks different from every angle, with little purple galaxies twinkling throughout. I’m pretty sure there are some alternate dimensions to explore in there if I just stare long enough!
