Vanadinite Cluster with Bubbly Crystal Pockets - One of a Kind, 2 In

Have you noticed how vanadinite crystals throw light back at you from all directions? On this cluster they gather in small rounded pockets, giving the whole piece a bubbly texture.

Turn it under a lamp and the tiny crystal faces flash red one pocket after another. The size suits a mineral drawer, a riker box or the front row of a display shelf, where the texture can be seen up close. It is a natural vanadinite crystal specimen with nothing added, and it is a thoughtful pick for a mineral collector who wants a classic vanadinite in their set, or for someone just starting a collection of small specimens.

About Vanadinite

Vanadinite is a lead chlorovanadate, about 73 percent lead, that grows as short hexagonal prisms in bright red, orange red or brown. It forms as a secondary mineral in the oxidized zone of lead bearing deposits, especially in arid climates, and it is an ore of vanadium. Mibladen, Morocco is the best known source of collector specimens.

Stone Meaning: Vanadinite is traditionally associated with drive and creativity.

Good to Know

• Vanadinite is very dense because of its lead content, so even a small piece feels heavier than it looks.
