Stones vertues
Season after season, Atelier PUKA chooses gemstones for their vivid hues and softly spoken virtues.
From soothing calm to self-confidence, harmony to protection, passion to creativity - let their gentle “magic” become yours.
Apatite is often associated with clarity and creative flow—an uplifting gem that invites focus, openness, and a sense of ease. Its name comes from the Greek apatē (“deception”), a nod to how this mineral was long mistaken for others; today, its sea-blue to green hues are prized for their luminous, water-like glow.
At Atelier PUKA, we select natural Apatite for its saturated, vibrant blues and crystal sparkle.
Considered a stone of communication, creativity, and confidence, Apatite is believed to ease mental clutter, calm worry, and support honest self-expression—an energizing companion for fresh ideas and everyday inspiration.

Strawberry Quartz is often regarded as a heart-warming gem, connecting us to gentle joy and the quiet beauty of nature. Its name comes from its look: clear quartz sprinkled with fine iron-oxide inclusions that create soft pink tones and berry-like speckles.
At Atelier PUKA, we work with natural Strawberry Quartz selected for its luminous blush and lively inclusions, cut and polished into smooth, balanced shapes that feel comfortable against the skin.
Considered a stone of love, harmony, and emotional balance, Strawberry Quartz is believed to soothe anxiety, ease inner tension, and encourage self-confidence and self-care. It’s associated with warmth, courage, and everyday well-being.

Moonstone belongs to the feldspar family. Typically translucent with a soft, floating sheen (adularescence), it ranges from milky white to clear with blue or silvery flashes. Long prized in South Asia and later embraced in Western jewelry, it’s valued for its gentle, moonlit glow and natural elegance.
Considered a stone of intuition and emotional balance, Moonstone is believed to soothe stress, calm shifting moods, and support new beginnings. Often linked with receptivity and self-trust, it encourages a steadier rhythm in daily life and a softer, more centered confidence.
