Medium African Tumble Stone - Epidote
Epidote is one of the deepest green minerals in the world of gems and crystals, with deep green, yellow-green, and sometimes brownish hues that give it a particularly strong character. Our medium African tumbled stone range (M size) features polished, natural epidote pieces which, according to our supplier, originate from South Africa. Epidote’s shimmer and distinctive green palette make it a special addition to any collection.

It also makes an excellent gift — epidote is a less widely known mineral, making it a truly unique surprise.
