Not a collector, not just a seller, but someone who actually goes out and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hunts<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for crystals. Meet <\/span><b>Akshay<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the man behind <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/crystal_hunt_india\/\"><b>Kaivalya House of Crystals<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in Pune.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From a very young age, Akshay was fascinated by stones and the natural formations found within them. What started as curiosity slowly turned into a passion, and today, that passion has taken him deep into the <\/span><b>world of crystal hunting<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. He actively explores and collects crystals, especially those <\/span><b>native to the Deccan Plateau<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 something not many people even know exists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He explained the process of how all the crystals are formed. They are formed due to the <\/span><b>volcanic activities<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the gasses which are trapped in the lava when cooling. Depending on these gases and all the other conditions surrounding it, different crystals are formed!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most fascinating crystals he spoke about is <\/span><b>Cavansite<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 a striking bright blue mineral that is incredibly rare and found in parts of Maharashtra, including regions around Pune. Seeing something so vibrant, naturally formed, and locally sourced makes you appreciate how much beauty lies hidden beneath our own land.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But his work doesn\u2019t stop at just finding crystals. Akshay also sources some of the <\/span><b>finest specimens from around the world<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Once they arrive, he personally works on <\/span><b>cleaning<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>polishing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and <\/span><b>preparing them<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, making them<\/span><b> ready for collectors.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Whether you&#8217;re someone just entering the world of crystals or an experienced collector, <\/span><b>his collection caters to everyone<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What stood out to us was <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">why<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> he started Kaivalya House of Crystals. In a space filled with misinformation and fake products \u2014 especially on social media \u2014 his goal is simple: to <\/span><b>provide authentic, genuine crystals that people can trust.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most unique parts of our visit was <\/span><b>getting to open a geode<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. There\u2019s something incredibly satisfying about cracking open a rock and discovering what\u2019s inside. In our case, one of them had a hollow cavity filled with <\/span><b>sparkling quartz crystals, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0raw, untouched, and absolutely beautiful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From <\/span><b>Amethyst<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Quartz<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to <\/span><b>Himalayan Quartz and Pyrite<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, his collection includes both raw and finished pieces \u2014 each with its own story.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While he does believe in the <\/span><b>spiritual side of crystals<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, his perspective is refreshingly grounded. According to him, <\/span><b>crystals are just tools<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 they can support you, <\/span><b>but they won\u2019t magically change your life.<\/b> <b>Real effort is still the key,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and crystals can simply complement that journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This wasn\u2019t just a visit to a store. It felt like stepping into a completely different world \u2014 one that exists quietly around us, waiting to be discovered. And thanks to Akshay, that <\/span><b>world is now a little more accessible in Pune.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Address: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/Nba1QbLnPcqcU27F8\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Survey 12B\/37, Adarsh Nagar, Wadgaon Sheri, Pune.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Contact: <\/b><a href=\"tel:08390617777\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">08390617777<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a city known for its caf\u00e9s and culture, we  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42,"featured_media":17140,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21,23],"tags":[4736,4735],"class_list":["post-17149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-decor","category-health-wellness","tag-crystal-hunter-in-pune","tag-natural-authentic-crystals-in-pune"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Meet Pune\u2019s only Crystal Hunter with 300+ crystals in his collection!
