Tumbled Aventurine, Blue

Description:

Each piece of this tumbled and polished blue aventurine is approximately 1/2" - 1 1/4" in size (we request that you allow for some slight size variation outside that range). Please select whether you would like a 1/2 LB lot or 1 LB lot.

Rock/Mineral Info:

Blue aventurine is composed of macrocrystalline quartz grains and disseminated dumortierite, the latter of which offers the stone its blue coloration. Further, blue aventurine is known for the tiny mica or hematite inclusions that make it shimmer. 

Blue aventurine forms when molten material rich in silicon dioxide gradually cools and solidifies in the Earth's crust. During this process, the inclusions that define blue aventurine enter the material to create the famous stone. 

Metaphysical Properties:

Blue aventurine is associated with self-expression, enhancing communication, and stress reduction. It is connected primarily with the throat chakra.
