Description
A substantial formation of deep violet-blue fluorite with well-defined cubic faces and stepped growth patterns. The darker crystals transition into translucent, pale blue sections, while light-coloured mineral growths create subtle contrasts across the surface.
Lore
In ancient China, fluorite was used to create ornaments placed in tombs and ceremonial jewellery. These objects recall ancient beliefs in which death did not entirely sever the bond between the living and the dead. This historical context lends the mineral symbolic associations with remembrance of ancestors, passage between worlds and a connection to the spiritual realm.
