About our hangers
The refined eyelet on the stone makes it almost look like you're wearing just a loose stone on a chain.
We select our stones ourselves at gemstone fairs. Among thousands of stones, we choose the ones that stand out, by shape, by quality, by an unexpected detail. At home in our studio in Breda, we drill a small, subtle hole and hand-apply the eyelet. Nothing else is needed. The stone itself is the piece of jewelry.
Meaning of Amethyst
Brandberg Amethyst is not ordinary amethyst, but a natural blend of amethyst, clear quartz, and smoky quartz in one crystal. Therefore, you often see purple, smoky, and clear zones intertwined, sometimes with phantoms: the outlines of a previous growth phase that remain visible as a crystal within the crystal. It can also contain small inclusions of other minerals, such as lepidocrocite, hematite, or goethite, which are visible as reddish-brown or golden specks. The crystals come exclusively from the Goboboseb Mountains near the Brandberg massif in the Erongo region of Namibia, in the heart of the Namib, the oldest desert in the world. Brandberg is literally named after "burning mountain," a red glow that the granite walls take on at sunset. They are mined there by hand, which makes each crystal unique and rare. Nowadays, they have to dig much deeper to find beautiful specimens.
Meaning of Brandberg Amethyst
Deep Healing, Transformation & Spiritual Alignment
Brandberg Amethyst is known as the master healer among crystals. Because three types of quartz come together in one stone, it unites three forces: the spiritual clarity of amethyst, the amplifying effect of clear quartz, and the grounding, protective energy of smoky quartz. Together, they bring your energy back into balance.
The stone supports deep inner healing and transformation. It helps you to recognize and release old patterns, blockages, and pain that you have been carrying for a long time, without being overwhelmed by them. The smoky quartz keeps you grounded, so you can experience change from a place of calm.
Brandberg Amethyst works strongly on the third eye. It calms a restless mind, deepens your meditation, and provides clear insight into what is truly at play. A stone that invites you to turn inward and trust your own inner knowing.
Thus, Brandberg Amethyst combines high, spiritual energy with firm grounding. A stone for those who truly want to heal, let go of old burdens, and align themselves more deeply with themselves and the greater whole.

About Mónos
Mónos was founded by Clara and Dion in 2021 when Dion was looking for such a pendant himself and couldn't find one anywhere. A free-form stone, beautiful quality, with a finish that didn't detract from the stone. So he decided to make it himself. Since 2023, we've been doing it together.
The name Mónos comes from the Greek mono, meaning one. Because of every stone, in this specific shape and color, there is only one.

Frequently asked questions
Are they real gemstones?
Yes! 🌿
Our collection exclusively features genuine gemstones and crystals. We prioritise unique, high-quality gemstones that are not commonly found.
What is 'Gold filled'?
Gold-filled is often confused with gold-plated, but they are actually two different things. Gold-plated refers to that thin layer of gold that quickly tarnishes; almost everyone has had a disappointing experience with it.
Gold-filled is something entirely different: a thick layer of 14-karat gold that is rolled onto a base metal, containing a minimum of 5% real gold.
It hardly tarnishes, can withstand daily wear for many years, and is nickel-free. It is a very durable and affordable alternative to 14-karat gold.
Are your jewelry pieces truly handmade?
Absolutely! ❤️
All jewelry is handmade with great care and love. This is what happens before a piece of jewelry appears on our website:
- The Discovery Journey: We scour trade shows to select the most beautiful gemstones, one by one, based on quality and shape.
- Creation: Next, we precisely drill a hole in each stone with a diamond drill, and then attach an eyelet. This makes it possible for you to wear your jewelry however you like - on a necklace or as an earring.
- Photography: And the best part? Every piece of jewelry is unique! We place an individual photo of each piece on our website, so you can choose your perfect shape yourself. There is only one of each stone, so you are guaranteed to have something unique in your hands ❤️
How can I find out the dimensions of a piece of jewelry?
There are two photos available for each piece of jewelry. In the second photo, you'll see my hand behind the jewelry so you can estimate its size. Please note: these are male hands, so they might be a bit larger than the average female reader, haha :)
And if you really want to know precisely: my fingers are about 1.7 cm thick. Never thought I'd measure this, but maybe it's useful, haha.
Is gift wrapping possible?
Of course!
If it's a gift, you can let us know in the comments field at the bottom of your shopping cart. We'll wrap it nicely for you ❤️
Can the eyelet of a piece of jewelry be changed?
Unfortunately, the loops on our jewelry are firmly glued and cannot be exchanged. Hopefully, you will find another gemstone or shape that appeals to you ❤️
