Sodalite Heart

Sodalite Heart 

Heart-shaped crystals and gemstones are aesthetics works of art.  They are hand-carved from a diverse collection of minerals, crystals, and gemstones that are found in nature. Heart-shaped crystals are typically associated with unconditional love and compassion; perfectly enhanced to promote self-love and love of others. They elevate happiness and endorphins, which give positive feelings to your mind and body. It is also a perfect stone for you as an individual and with your relationship with your lover, family, friends, and even with your acquaintances. It builds connections and growth that are beneficial in the long run.

First discovered by Europeans in 1811 in Greenland, sodalite did not become important until 1891 when vast deposits were discovered in Ontario, Canada. Usually opaque, some crystals are transparent to translucent. Sodalite is known for its royal blue colour, but it may also be grey, yellow, green, or pink and is usually mottled with white veins or patches. Often confused with Lapis Lazuli, Sodalite very rarely contains Pyrite and this is a good way to discern one from the other by sight. Its name comes from the Latin term sodalitas that means comrade.
