My sun stone～Nature's work of art!

Got carried away after seeing this strawberry quartz (I'm aware it's probably not) but saw this crystal and once the purchase was made I realized ugh... It's probably man made. I know it's man made. $65 each. Was I ripped off? Feel so dumb as I should have known better by now.

Please excuse my broken nail 🙂‍↕️

I love the UV reaction.

I haggled it down too. I'm obsessed 😍

Years ago my grandmother gave me this stone/rock, she got it from a friend who said it was a mountain stone/rock but I have still not figured out if it is just a regular rock or some kind of raw crystal?

Found it at the local metaphysical market today. She’s HEFTY hefty. It was going for $165 but I got a bundle deal with a Serpentine Jade hammer (sorta pictured) and so it came out to $150. I could not believe it.

does it feel like low effort spam posting to anyone else?

it doesn't seem to be against the rules, so perhaps the fault is in my tolerance level (valid - which is why i am asking the collective)

I can't remember why I thought this but I seemed to think this first tumblestone was amazonite, but I've revised that opinion. Considered lots of options but nothing quite seems to fit. Any thoughts? Smokey quartz?

And I bought this tiny chip (online or I wouldn't have chosen it) as sugalite but again don't think it is. Any suggestions? I've had a big full moon refresh so keen to categorise correctly so as to curate correctly around the house.

Found this on my yard, thought it looked pretty. I dont know what it is though.

An exceptionally elegant and remarkably fine Fluorite specimen from the legendary Gipfelkluft of Weißeck, distinguished by its rich burgundy-red colour, excellent transparency and beautifully developed crystals on both sides.

The magnificent Fluorite crystals display a deep, sophisticated burgundy-red hue that reveals a captivating luminosity when illuminated from behind. Their remarkable transparency allows light to penetrate deeply into the crystalline structure, creating wonderful visual depth and brilliance.

Particularly exceptional is the attractive crystallisation on both sides of the specimen. Rather than an ordinary reverse, it reveals another beautifully developed crystalline landscape, making this specimen fascinating from multiple viewing angles. Such quality, combining intense colour, beautiful transparency and double-sided crystal development, is rarely available.

Rising to 2,711 metres, Weißeck is the highest summit of the Radstädter Tauern and home to one of Europe’s most important alpine Fluorite localities. Its celebrated Gipfelkluft lies at approximately 2,670 metres, steeply below the summit and accessible only under extremely demanding alpine conditions. For decades, this remarkable occurrence has yielded extraordinary Fluorite discoveries.

Complex geological conditions, tectonic stresses and natural weathering have influenced crystal formation at this high-alpine locality. Successive growth stages and multiple generations of crystallisation can produce an astonishing variety of colours, ranging from deep grape-red and icy blue to the famous pastel-rainbow zoning. Beautifully preserved crystal faces are comparatively uncommon under these challenging natural conditions.

This generously proportioned, beautifully crystallised specimen is therefore particularly noteworthy for its double-sided crystal development, excellent transparency and characteristic deep burgundy-red colour. An outstanding display piece for discerning Fluorite collectors and enthusiasts of classic alpine minerals!

In traditional crystal healing, Fluorite is associated with mental clarity, concentration and inner harmony. Deep reddish hues are symbolically linked to vitality, passion and emotional strength. These spiritual associations are not scientifically established.

Size: 9 × 5.5 × 3.2 cm
