Note: The semi-tumbled stones have received a partial tumbling eliminating sharp edges from the mineral which however maintains the typical roughness of rough stones to the touch.
Fluorite, also called fluorine or spatofluor, is a mineral composed of calcium fluoride (CaF2) and is the most important mineral belonging to the fluorinated family. It is a very common mineral in nature and has an extreme variety of colors: white, yellow, green, blue, red, pink, purple, lilac, champagne and brown. It is not well known what the name of fluorite derives from. The two plausible derivations are either from the Latin "fluere", which means to flow, due to the low melting point of this mineral and its use as a flux in the metallurgical industry, or from the name given to it by the English miners of the Middle Ages, who called fluorite “mineral flower” for its beauty.
