Green Fluorite Handstones from Madagascar
Fluorite
Fluorite is a mineral known for its wide colour variation and glassy luster. It can be purple, green, blue, yellow, colourless or even multicoloured. Fluorite often forms in hydrothermal veins, usually together with other minerals such as quartz, calcite and barite.
Major deposits include China, Mexico, South Africa and Spain. Its chemical formula is CaFâ‚‚, and the mineral belongs to the halides. Fluorite has a hardness of 4 on the Mohs scale.
Well-known varieties are rainbow fluorite (multi-coloured layered), blue fluorite and green fluorite, each with its own colour scheme and brightness.

Hand stones
Hand stones are our largest, tumbled and smoothly polished (precious) stones that often sit very well in the hand, which immediately explains the name. Drummed, this size is also called a palm stone or jumbo stone. Often these stones are extra polished or ground after tumbling for a beautiful end result. Despite this consistency, it remains a natural product, so variations in shape, colour and pattern can always occur. This can vary from one type of stone to another.
Generally, handstones have a size between 4 × 3 × 2 cm and 6 × 5 × 3 cm. Almost all our handstones come from Madagascar, where they are carefully selected and processed. The product photos give a good impression of what to expect. Hand stones are sold per 100 gr (1x), with a minimum order of 500 gr (5x).
