A stone that fits into the palm
We recommend this heart-shaped opalite palm stone to anyone who likes to hold their minerals in hand. The polished surface offers a smooth and pleasing touch. The size is made so that you can hold it comfortably, even during a longer conversation, and feel the cool touch of the stone slowly warming up.
The appearance of opalite
Opalite is a soft milky-blue stone with a gentle opalescent shine. In different angles of light it gleams in different colours: sometimes white, sometimes pale blue, sometimes a faint rosy reflection appears within it. This exciting optical play is why many fall in love with it. Each piece is unique, so the one you receive is exactly as nature and the shaping have formed it.
The origin of opalite in brief
Opalite is a glass-like, man-made material inspired by the mood of true opal. That is, it is not a mined natural opal, but a beautifully shaped, milk-glass-like companion to it. This makes it more accessible and more even in appearance, so you receive a beautiful, calming form. It is important to see this clearly before buying.
How you can use it in daily life
As a palm stone for a quiet minute, for a breathing exercise, or to calm the hand in an anxious moment. On a table, windowsill or shelf as a decoration that gently filters the light. As a small gift for a birthday, name day, or as a kind gesture to someone who loves gentle shapes.
What to watch out for when caring for it
Opalite can be cleaned with lukewarm water and a soft cloth. Do not expose it to strong heat shocks (hot-cold changes), and do not drop it on a hard surface, as its glass-like material is fragile. Avoid prolonged sunshine as well. With care, it will remain a small treasure in your palm for years.
