Y'all must be on the same wavelength...there're TWO angels in the room!God you're quick Linda, I only just pressed enter and there you are, how do you do it. Ah!!! I forgot, angels have these magic powers don't they.
The blue one to the right looks like tumble looks like either blue aragonite or amazonite. Can't tell by just one angle.Can anyone identify these pieces for me please?

Oh, my...those are beautiful! I think those are cowry (sp?) shells. My grandmother (who LOVED metaphysics, but sadly passed before I had any great interest) had a few of those in her home...they were big too, about the size of a closed fist, if I remember right. Thanks for bringing back the memories!I know these are not crystals but I thought you might be interested in seeing them.
Thankyou SG, I didn't know what they were. I've had them years and only found them again while having a sort,out. So I did a little google and found mine are snakes head cowries. There are two others, one a golden ring top I believe. I see there are all sorts of colours including purple, yes they are beautiful I'm pleased it brought back lovely memories for you.Interesting...just did a little poking around and found this about cowrie shells:
"Spiritually, according to African legend, if you are attracted to cowrie shells you could be family to an ocean spirit of wealth and earth. It also represents Goddess protection which is very powerful and connected with the strength of the ocean. Throughout Africa, and South and North America, the cowrie symbolized the power of destiny and prosperity. Thought of as the mouth of Orsisas, it also is believed to have taught stories of humility and respect."

The blue one to the right looks like tumble looks like either blue aragonite or amazonite. Can't tell by just one angle.
The heart looks like a type of Agate. Again hard to tell by just one angle.
The reddish looks like garnet.
Easier to identify with more angles and in natural sunlight (photo taken outside if possible)
