Premium 2in. Angelite Egg – Blue Anhydrite | Intuitively Selected

Geological Overview
Angelite is the widely accepted trade name for a semi-transparent to opaque blue variety of anhydrite (calcium sulfate, CaSO₄). It forms in evaporite deposits where gypsum has lost its water content due to immense geological pressure and heat over millions of years. Crystallizing in the orthorhombic system, this specific blue variety is most famously sourced from deep within the Andes Mountains of Peru.

Aesthetic Appeal
This 2-inch polished egg presents a classic, opaque soft blue hue, earning a Grade A commercial rating. Because anhydrite is a naturally softer mineral (3.5 on the Mohs scale), the expert lapidary work yields a beautiful, smooth matte to low-gloss finish rather than a highly reflective vitreous shine. The uniform, cloud-like colour is incredibly soothing and provides excellent visual contrast when displayed alongside highly faceted or dark minerals.

Metaphysical Properties
In metaphysical practices, Angelite is deeply associated with the throat, third eye, and crown chakras. It is heavily utilized by practitioners to facilitate communication with higher frequencies, promote deep spiritual peace, and enhance intuitive abilities. Its remarkably calming vibration makes it a foundational stone for meditation spaces and holistic healing rooms.

Rarity & Collectibility
While anhydrite itself is relatively common in evaporite environments, the high-quality, dense blue material known as Angelite is highly localized. Finding pieces with consistent colouration that have been skillfully carved into flawless, symmetrical forms like this egg is highly desirable for both holistic practitioners and interior decorators.

Collector’s & Display Notes
Crucial Care Instruction: Because Angelite is a calcium sulfate mineral without water in its crystal lattice, it will readily absorb moisture and slowly revert to gypsum if exposed to water. This stone must be kept strictly dry. Never cleanse this mineral with water or display it in high-humidity environments like bathrooms.

Measurements & Condition

• Dimensions: Approximately 2 inches (5.08 cm) in height.
• Condition: All-natural stone, expertly shaped and polished. Absolutely no artificial dyes or colour enhancements. Minor, microscopic surface variations may be present, which are entirely consistent with the lapidary carving of a softer, Mohs 3.5 natural mineral.
