A worry stone, also called a thumb stone, is a small indented oval-shaped polished mineral or gemstone. It's basically an ancient fidget spinner: it feels good to hold and run your thumb across the smooth surface and it can be soothing. This is great one if you like squirreling away stones your pockets!

A good worry stone will help you forget how dry your hands look in all the pictures, oh god don't look at that. It will be relatively lightweight and thin to fit between the fingers; larger "flat egg" shaped stones can be called worry stones but are more typically called palm stones. In comparison cheaply made worry stones will look clunky, thick, and have a visible line where the indentation begins. That edge can feel rough compared to a normal worry stone which is very smooth with no edges.

Dragon's blood jasper gets its name from its striking contrast of vibrant red spots through a dark olive-gray material, mottled with spots and streaks of lime-green. It roughly resembles blood on dragon scales. Note that there are imperfections in the surface due to differences in how the materials polish. You may be able to feel small pock marks or the veining.

Option M is some odd transitional material that might actually be some regular heliotrope that snuck in. I'll be honest, R is pretty but feels kinda weird. I guess get that one if you want to know what "weird" feels like.

One for you, one for your pods! I find this the perfect size for an isopod feeding dish to use in my nicer terrariums. The slight indentation helps keep food in the center. I thought they might be too smooth for mancae to climb but that hasn't been an issue! Even though it feels smooth to us, the aggregate crystal structure is quite textured at their scale.
