Polished Fluorite Nuggets

Product Description

We’re told that fluorite’s energy is helpful for the pain of arthritis. Fluorite has a long and interesting history. The term fluorescence was named for fluorite, which often fluoresces under invisible ultra-violet light. The ancient Egyptians used fluorite in statues and in carving scarabs. The ancient Romans believed that drinking alcoholic beverages from vessels carved of fluorite kept the drinker from getting drunk. (Remind anyone of amethyst?) Artifacts of carved fluorite were found in the ruins of Pompeii.
In the 18th century, fluorite was powdered in water to relieve the symptoms of kidney disease.
The Chinese have used it in carvings for more than 300 years. Fluorite has been said to be crystallized light, which can bring light into the brain.
Pliny's most precious substance was fluorite, as in the valuable vase taken from Alexandria by Augustus. Pompey took 6 such vases from Mithridates' treasure and presented them to the temple of Jupiter.
Fluorite's colors can range from shades of all colors including pink, blue, green, yellow, purple, magenta, red, black, brown and colorless. It has a vitreous luster with color distribution often zonal or spotty. Color can be changed with gamma rays and has been known to fade in the sunlight. Fluorite is transparent and translucent and phosphoresces when heated. Fluorite's fluorescence is strong, short waves of blue-violet light.
