Charoite is translucent lavender to purple in color with a pearly lustre. Charoite is strictly massive in nature, and fractures are conchoidal. It has an unusual swirling, fibrous appearance, sometimes chatoyant, and that, along with its intense color, can lead many to believe at first that it is synthetic or enhanced artificially. Though reportedly discovered in the 1940s, it was not known to the outside world until its description in 1978. It is said to be opaque and unattractive when found in the field; a fact that may have contributed to its late recognition. Charoite occurs in association with tinaksite and canasite. - size : 22 carved beaded , each bead size 8 mm Product Details Shape / Type: bracelet Material / Gem: Charoite Shipping/Handling FREE for standard int'l shipping (18-30 days delivery) Grade / Type: 100% Grade A / Type A / Class A Refractive Index: 1.66~1.67 Specific Gravity: 3.33~3.34 Shipping Policy this is Free shipping so Standard int'l shipping: 10-18 days to Delivered to you Yes We provide tracking numbers so You can track all information .
