Blue Apatite tumbled medium

Blue apatite is a phosphate mineral recognized for its rich ocean-blue to teal colouring and natural inclusions. This medium tumbled blue apatite is a pocket stone for meditation, creative reflection, or keeping beside your journal.

Its name comes from the Greek word apatein, meaning "to deceive," because apatite was historically mistaken for other minerals. Known sources include Madagascar, Brazil, and Myanmar.
