{"product_id":"worry-stones-opalite-dz-1-5-1-75","title":"Opalite Worry Stone - 2 inch","description":"\u003cp\u003eOpalite Worry Stone cut to a rounded oval with a thumb hollow across one face. The body is a pale milky white that shifts toward cool blue in reflected light and toward warm amber when lit from behind, so the same stone reads as two different colours depending on where the light sits. The surface is glass-slick under a thumb, noticeably smoother than any polished mineral, and the piece is light for its size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpalite is used for calm and for quiet attention, and its low cost makes it a common first stone or a giveaway piece. It is generally carried loose in a pocket or kept in a bowl with others rather than treated as a single significant object. The colour shift is the whole appeal, and it is genuinely more pronounced here than in the natural stones it imitates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Focus: Calm \u0026amp; Stress Relief\u003cbr\u003eSecondary Focus: Intuition \u0026amp; Spiritual Awareness\u003cbr\u003eChakra Association: Third Eye, Crown\u003cbr\u003eZodiac Sign: Cancer, Virgo\u003cbr\u003eRuling Planet: Moon\u003cbr\u003eElements: Water\u003cbr\u003eMohs Hardness: 5.5-6.5\u003cbr\u003eStone Family: Man-Made\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Opalite\u003cbr\u003eForm: Worry Stone\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Size: 50 mm (2 inches)\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Weight: 17-19 g\u003cbr\u003eListing: Single unit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOpalite is a man-made opalescent glass, not a naturally occurring mineral, manufactured from dolomite and metal compounds at Mohs 5.5 to 6.5. The shifting milky white to pale blue effect is produced by light diffraction through the glass structure rather than by any mineral property, which is why the apparent colour changes so markedly with lighting and background. It is manufactured specifically to mimic the appearance of natural opal and moonstone, and is sold widely on that resemblance, but it shares neither their composition nor their formation. Production is primarily in China. There is no historical tradition behind the material; it is entirely modern, and this piece is man-made and disclosed as such.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach piece is selected for its quality, beauty, and visual consistency.
