raw crystals
Gems before cutting
Raw crystals are minerals in their natural, unpolished state—not cut, faceted, or tumbled smooth.
The term appears most often in contexts of jewelry, spiritual practice, and home décor, where the unrefined appearance is valued for its authenticity or perceived energy: She prefers raw crystals to polished stones.
