Opalite Heart - 1.75 inch
Product Description
The Opalite Heart is a polished heart of milky, translucent Opalite, glowing pale white with a soft blue iridescence that shifts across the surface with the light and background. Its two rounded lobes are finished to a high polish, and each Opalite Heart shows a gentle play of white-to-blue opalescence as it is turned. It sits smooth and cool in the palm.
Opalite is popularly associated with emotional calm and gentle clarity, and its soft luminous glow has made it a favourite for those drawn to a serene, dreamy look. It is commonly kept close as a soothing piece, held during quiet moments, or given as a gentle gift, and a heart is a natural form for a smooth, glowing palm stone.
As a man-made glass, each Opalite Heart is fairly consistent in appearance, with slight variation in the strength of its iridescence from piece to piece.

Geological Information
Opalite is a man-made opalescent glass, not a natural mineral, manufactured to mimic the look of natural opal and moonstone. It is created from dolomite and metal compounds, and its iridescent play of colour shifts between milky white and pale blue depending on light conditions and background. This is disclosed as a man-made material rather than a natural stone. It is manufactured primarily in China.
