An obelisk is the classic shape for a desk or shelf, and this amazonite one is cut to stand upright on its own base.
At about 11.75 inches tall and 3.625 inches wide at the base, it is sturdy and well proportioned, with enough width to stand steadily. Natural white streaks of quartz or feldspar are part of amazonite's look, so each face has its own pattern, and the cool green to blue green color makes a fresh accent for a home office or a reading nook. Put it on a bookshelf, a mantel or an office desk where the color shows in good light. Front, back and side views plus a ruler photo let you check it from every angle. This exact obelisk is what you receive.
The obelisk stands about 11.75 inches tall; its base measures about 3.625 by 2.75 inches.
Amazonite is microcline feldspar in green to blue green, a color thought to come from trace lead, and it rates about 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale. It is mined in Brazil, Colorado, Madagascar, Norway and Russia, and it has long been nicknamed Amazon jade, though it is not jade. Two directions of perfect cleavage mean a hard knock can split it.
Stone Meaning: Amazonite is traditionally associated with courage and truth.
