A deep purple, iridescent Aurora obelisk, about 9 centimetres tall, with a hand-polished surface. The purple tone is strong yet elegant — at moments almost indigo, then revealing soft rose flashes. You receive a piece whose appearance shifts with the lighting around it.
The depth of the purple shade
Purple is linked in many traditions with deep thought, meditation and inner stillness. The surface of this obelisk is glossy: it reflects part of the incoming light and refracts another part, which is where the characteristic iridescent play comes from. Purple Aurora shows particularly well against soft grey, anthracite or off-white backgrounds, where the strength of the colour can stand out.
The obelisk as a form
The pointed obelisk has a decorative tradition going back thousands of years. The upward-pointing tip symbolises focus, ascent and the gathering of attention. You are buying a small object that is decoration and quiet visual centre at once — for the desk or shelf. Thanks to its compact size, it fits almost anywhere.
Everyday use
Many people place it beside their computer, where the eye can rest on it during a screen break. Others put it on a bedside table, where the evening lamp catches it softly. You can also arrange it in the centre of a wooden tray or with a few small pebbles, as a gentle companion to a small, personal altar-like arrangement.
