Rich, deep blues!
Sodalite from Ontario Canada.
 
Polished to a matte finish, your pendant is a large piece of Ontario Sodalite from the Bancroft area. It is a stunning crystal with vibrant natural blue and white patterns that look almost like a lightning strike down the side of your gemstone. You will discover that the back of your crystal is slightly different than the front, so you will have much to explore. The surface is smooth like silk but not shiny like glass, giving this a really unique look and feel. 
 
Sodalite can be a wonderful crystal when you are needing support for changes that are happening in your life.  You can move forward to a new phase of life, your job, your relationship or situation you are in, and be focused and calm.  Sodalite is also a particularly helpful crystal for meditation as it helps to calm and quiet those busy thoughts you can’t seem to let go of.  Hold your crystal and focus on it and allow your mind to relax. 
 
This very gemstone came from a collection from a prior owner of the Princess Mine located in Bancroft Ontario. We purchased these crystals from the owner and are currently finishing off the polishing of the last remaining gemstones from this collection. This piece has been hand wrapped using sterling silver wire. These crystals and their beauty are in limited supply. Your crystal measures 1 1/2 inches tall by 1 1/4 inches wide. It is quite large.
 
A bit of history about your crystal: In the year 1901 the Princess of Wales was given a piece of stone from this mine and she simply fell in love with its beauty. Arrangements were made to quarry enough of this gem to decorate her residence in London England (called the Marlborough House.) This is how the Princess Sodalite Mine found its name
