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.

Imposing bricks
Lay-on stones are flat, tumbled and smoothly polished (precious) stones that, due to their oval to round shape and flat sides, are suitable for laying on the body, for instance during a relaxation moment. Compared to regular tumble stones and pocket stones, overlay stones have a more flattened shape, which makes them stay well in place. 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, overlays have a size between 3 and 4 cm with a thickness of about 1 cm. Almost all our overlays are cut in China, where they are carefully selected and processed. The product photos give a good impression of what to expect. Lay-on stones are sold per 100 gr (1x), with a minimum order of 200 gr (2x).
