Massive blue Sodalite with white veins.
Sodalite is a mineral that usually appears massive, its crystallization comes from magmas rich in sodium.
Its main use is as a precious stone for jewelry, although it is also used as an architectural stone and to make sculptures.
The mineral includes a label with the name and origin and is attached to a cardboard box. 4 cm square.
*The price is per unit (a single cardboard box of the four shown in the photo)
Since the minerals are natural, you will receive a piece similar to the one in the photograph. The minerals come in cardboard boxes and are glued to a porex base with hot silicone; these can be removed using ethyl alcohol without damaging the mineral. The size is approximate.
