VVITCHMOUNTAIN

65 Main Street, Ōtaki 5512

Venture into the depths of Ōtaki in the Kāpiti Coast and you’ll discover VVITCHMOUNTAIN, a one-of-a-kind boutique that welcomes all those exploring the world of crystal healing, from beginners to seasoned collectors.

From the front door right through to the shelves at the back of the shop, VVITCHMOUNTAIN gives off the vibe of a wellness centre - and appropriately so, as people come here to recharge and relax. On the wide glass table at the centre of the shop and along the walls, you’ll find more crystals and minerals than you’ve likely ever seen in one space. An intriguing mix of textures and colours, from smooth stones to jagged edges and pastel hues to shimmering royal blues, dominates the interior. Amid the busyness, there’s a sense of calm and order, no doubt emanating from the myriad of crystals around you.

Having established a reputation for high-quality, ethically sourced crystals and minerals, VVITCHMOUNTAIN continues to attract crystal keepers, lightworkers, and the crystal-curious. The shop’s crystals, stones, and minerals are hand-selected in small batches to “ensure their aesthetic and energetic integrity”, as owner Amanda explains. In addition to crystals, you can also explore a range of jewellery, statement pieces for the home and books to get you started on your crystal journey. There’s a deliberate customer-centric approach, as the shop is focused on offering a tailored experience, catering to the individual’s needs.

A space for people from all walks of life, VVITCHMOUNTAIN goes out of its way to provide a welcoming space for everyone. Whether you’re new to crystals or looking to expand your collection, Amanda is here to listen, guide, and have you feeling your best.
