This polished purpurite shows a saturated purple color alongside natural white and brown inclusions.
Make it the centerpiece of a mineral collection, set it on a desk or bookshelf as a bold accent, or give it to a collector looking for something unusual. The larger weights make a dramatic display piece.
Choose 500 grams to 1 kilogram, 1 to 1.5 kilograms, 1.5 to 2 kilograms or 2 to 2.5 kilograms. The purple color is natural, not dyed, and shape and inclusions vary from stone to stone.
