Aments' Attic

Aments' Attic High-quality artisan and vintage cultural items. From awesome attics to creepy cellars, I search high and low for unusual vintage treasures.

In the process removing junk and clearing clutter, helping clients make space for better living. I also craft a variety of items (often with reclaimed and cleansed or wild-crafted materials) by moon-phase, as per my spiritual traditions.

Etsy asked Shop Owners to share more about the processes they use in their work, so here is a little about the crystal facet of our business;
We love working with stones and crystals!
We offer both Vintage and Wild-Crafted stones among our selection. We begin with visual identification, but follow up with basic tests, such as Mohs' hardness. Here we see minerals lined up for scratch testing, which we practice carefully (usually on the back of the piece).

Best piece in this old jade lot in my opinion. I love the icy translucency and fire-in-the-belly look of this natural jadeite jade Buddha pendant.

Red Garnets have been likened to blood (and are seen as cleansers and strengtheners of it) strength and power. They symbolize also our reproductive nature, and are said to stimulate these systems in us. They are however, also related to chivalry and loyalty, giving balance. Garnets are usually considered Root Chakra Stones. They are frequently worked with for protection, grounding, strength, s*x appeal, love, loyalty, power, and prosperity.

Today we listed several Canadian Celestite Clusters!
Celestite is also called Celestine, both names refer to the ethereal blue colour of the crystals. It is often used on Angel Altars as a focus tool for prayer, and is a good meditation crystal.
It's also a calming and focusing stone, recommended by Crystal Workers for ADHD (and ADD).

we now have a new company branch for quality vintage fashion and décor items; Again And Again Vintage!
