About Us

Hi, I’m Nicki.

My love for rocks and minerals started when I was young, exploring creeks and mountains and bringing home the stones I found along the way. I still have some of those first rocks today. What began as childhood curiosity has grown into a lifelong interest in the science, formation, and natural beauty of crystals. I am still learning every day, and that curiosity continues to shape what Stillwater Crystals is today.

Years later, my health changed unexpectedly. After years of searching for answers, I was diagnosed with Lyme disease and related illnesses. That season of life was difficult, and it changed what normal looked like for me. Stillwater Crystals began during that time as a way for me to stay connected to something I loved while bringing awareness to Lyme disease and the reality many people face while living with chronic illness.

This business would not exist without my husband, Dan, who helped make it possible for me to build something meaningful when my world became smaller. What started as a small project has slowly grown into a family effort. My mom helps wrap and prepare many of the crystals that are sent out, and her support is part of what allows Stillwater to continue.

Stillwater Crystals is not about crystal “properties” or intuition. It is about appreciation for natural formation, geology, and the beauty of the earth. Every piece is chosen because it is interesting, unique, or simply beautiful in its own right.

Thank you for being here and for supporting a small family business. Your support helps keep this work going and allows me to continue learning, sharing, and growing one stone at a time.
