Afghanite Cabochons

- rare, natural, flatback cabochon, UV reactive

 Afghanite is a rare sodium aluminum silicate mineral from the sodalite group, first discovered in the 1960s and found primarily in Afghanistan, with smaller deposits in Pakistan. Formed in high-temperature, high-pressure metamorphosed alkaline volcanic rocks, its vivid blue color is influenced by chromium and vanadium within its structure. Highly prized for its scarcity and striking beauty, Afghanite is associated with spiritual insight, mental clarity, and inner peace, believed to enhance meditation, balance the Third Eye, and support deep self-exploration and connection to higher guidance.
