Dumortierite Tumble Dark
Polished dark Dumortierite tumbled stones with a deep navy to indigo-black colour and a high-gloss finish. These are a notably saturated, dark variety of Dumortierite — the colour ranges from deep steel-blue to near-black indigo, with visible fibrous or striated internal structure on some pieces where the mineral's natural crystal habit shows through the polish. Sold per stone, approximately 2.5–3cm.
Dumortierite is an aluminium borosilicate mineral that typically occurs in a massive fibrous form, giving it its characteristic silky or striated internal texture. Its deep blue colour is caused by iron and titanium substitutions within the crystal structure. It is often found in metamorphic rocks and is relatively uncommon as a tumbled stone, making it a distinctive addition to any collection.
