It was first described in 1844 and forms in pegmatites and nepheline syenites, and its name comes from the Greek astron, meaning star, and phyllon, meaning leaf, reflecting the star-like radiating appearance of the bladed crystals. Material of this dark, radiating appearance is sometimes sold under the name arfvedsonite when the matrix dominates. This tower form is also sold as an Obelisk or a Point, all describing the same faceted, single-terminated cut. Principal sources include Norway, Russia, and Greenland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
