Information:
Azurite
is a soft stone copper carbonate mineral, named for its deep
“azure blue” color. To the inhabitants of Atlantis and the early
Egyptians, Azurite was a most potent psychic stone and shrouded in
mystery; its secrets known only to the highest priests and
priestesses. It was called the Stone of Heaven by the ancient
Chinese who believed it to open celestial gateways, and was revered
by Greeks and Romans for its visionary insights and healing powers.
For the Mayans, Azurite inspired the mystical self and facilitated
the transfer of wisdom and knowledge via thought, while Native
Americans used this sacred stone to contact their spiritual Indian
guide, feel the presence and understand the message.
This particular piece is reconstituted
by
grinding the Azurite
into a powder, then adding a binding agent, then dried. This makes
slabs of Azurite
which
can then be used for knife handles. This
piece has a
lot
of
green
spots
of Malachite
which complements the Azurite nicely..
White marble is
a popular white stone
generally from Italy that is a consistent, light, natural stone with
dark gray
veining has been reconstituted
by
grinding the White Marble into a powder, then adding a binding
agent, then dried. This makes slabs of
White Marble which can then be used for knife handles. This
particular piece has lots of veins,
a wonderful sheen,
and
provides a nice contrast to the Azurite.
