Fluorite is one of nature's most colourful minerals: green, purple and blue bands can flow into one another within a single stone. This pendant of about 4 cm sets a piece of that playful palette in metal – and since it comes in assorted shades, every piece is different.
About fluorite
Fluorite (also called fluorspar) occurs in many colours in nature; its shades come from the various trace elements it contains. It is translucent, with a glassy lustre and often a banded look. In tradition, fluorite is known as a stone of clarity and focus, and many regard it as a companion to ordered, clear thinking. These meanings belong to the stone's cultural story rather than to any medical effect.
Make
The pendant holds the stone in a zinc-alloy setting and comes without a cord, so you are free to choose a necklace or leather strap to suit it. It is supplied in assorted, naturally occurring fluorite shades, so the piece you receive may differ in colour from the picture. It measures around 4 cm.
What is it for?
Thanks to its many shades, there is a matching piece for almost any outfit. Its translucent, glossy surface makes an elegant yet playful item.
Good to know
This is a natural mineral supplied in assorted colours, so every piece is unique. Fluorite is a relatively soft stone, so it is best kept from knocks and scratches. Wipe with a soft cloth.
