Lightsaber crystal

A lightsaber crystal was a term used to describe any variety of crystals, gems and stones used in the construction of a lightsaber.



At the heart of every lightsaber was a set of crystals that resonated to produce the efficient, powerful blade. While the most common crystals used in the process were from Ossus, Ilum, and Dantooine (in the so-called "Crystal Cave"), Jedi and Sith used a variety of crystals to produce various colors, affects and unique abilities. Some crystals could even enhance the Force skills of a particular user. The following is a list of crystals that imbued a lightsaber or wielder with particular abilities. Other gems, such as colored crystals or diamonds, were used exclusively for prismatic effects.
