You may not have heard of a Charoite gemstone. It is found in Siberia – the Republic of Sakha (also known as Yakutia).The limited number of sources means that Charoite isn’t just rare to find but also rare in the market. Russia essentially controls how much is mined and how much actually makes its way out of the country. As a result, charoite can be more costly than many other stones.
If you’re curious about charoite, here are a few facts. –
Charoites metaphysical properties, is classified as a silicate mineral, (1978) meaning it is composed of silicate groups containing silicon and oxygen atoms.
There is an outstanding debate concerning the origin of the stone’s name. Some believing it was named after the Chara River in Russia, as charoite deposits are found nearby. Others think it is derived from the Russian word “chary,” which means “magic” or “charm,”
FAKE OR REAL – Fake charoite is incredibly prevalent in the marketplace.
Examples: versions of fluorite are often marketed as charoite, even though it isn’t, other stones are dyed to try and match Charoite’s look.
Mainly, fakes hit the market because Charoite is relatively rare and can command a decent price tag, giving less scrupulous people or companies an incentive to market a lesser valuable stone as Charoite.
COLOUR – Charoite tends to have only a little transparency. As it accepts a polish, this allows it to have a lovely lustre that’s slightly pearly or silky. There can also be a cat’s eye effect caused by various inclusions typically found in Charoite, an optical phenomenon known as Chatoyance.
The exact hue of purple in a piece of charoite can vary, from Purple, Pink and Lilac; in others, it’s a deep Violet, dark Eggplant, Plum, or Indigo
Most pieces of charoite also feature striations. The strands appear like a white crystal in most cases, though they may also lean slightly to grey.
Color: Violet, lilac, light brown, whiteish grey
