Alamaris, they are beautiful--thanks for putting up the photo! And I love their names.
What are they made from? Do you find any difference in energy between ones you got from Sherry and the others?
Thank you! And yes, they are quite beautiful... I think they know it too.
Lets see, left to right... Margali is snowflake obsidian, Sybiline is a type of jasper (I've forgotten the specific name), Ognian is hematite (and
heavy at nearly 6cm long!), Max is clear quartz, Calysto is bloodstone, Ozy is another jasper, Rosalina is tiger iron, and Kaeki is rose quartz.
I think the energy difference is very subtle between Sherry's and the ones I bought in shops. There seems to be more difference in them individually, in their personalities, than there is due to where they came from. Max, Calysto and Margali stand out here -- Max was my first and will always be my "buddy" skull; Calysto has a sort of grumpy soldier personality; and Margali is just a strange one... some days she's an alien, some days she's a healer, some days she's a martyr. Maybe she's got Multiple Personality Disorder.
Actually, I should thank you... I'd forgotten about Sherry until I saw your post, so I went over and browsed her eBay store. Two labradorite skulls were leaping around and doing their "Pick me! Pick me!" puppy-skull eyes. So in a week or so, there shall be ten in total. I think that's a large enough collection for now... I don't have much room left on the shelf!

How did the two of you (Apollonia & Alamaris) come to be interested in crystal skulls ?
Just a heads up, I can't access the links you posted. =) But I can answer your question! I'm a typical Scorpio, always fascinated by death and the macabre. I was on vacation one day, just heading home, when my dad and I decided to stop in a little crystal shop. Under the glass was Max, and after I made suitable fangirl noises, my dad bought him for me out of the blue. Thus started an obsession!
