{"product_id":"scapolite-on-matrix-purple-crystal-89108","title":"Scapolite on Matrix | Purple Crystal, Mineral Specimen from Afghanistan","description":"\u003cp\u003ePurple scapolite from Afghanistan is highly regarded for its attractive crystal formations, excellent transparency, and coloration ranging from soft lavender to violet hues. The crystals commonly occur as well-formed tetragonal prisms with distinct striations and sharp terminations, often contrasting beautifully against the surrounding white matrix. Most purple scapolite specimens from Afghanistan have undergone heat treatment to enhance or stabilize their violet coloration, a practice that is standard for this mineral. Some specimens are further enhanced by associated dark green diopside crystals, which add visual interest and create striking color contrasts. Afghan localities are known for producing aesthetic, collector-quality specimens with exceptional crystal definition and pleasing mineral associations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize 4 x 3.1 Cm\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight 24g\u003cbr\u003e\n( Conversion: 1 inch = 2.5cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin: Sar-e Sang, Koksha Valley, Badakhshan Province, Afghanistan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that this is a natural product, sometimes stones and crystals have small imperfections and blemishes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMake sure to double check measurements and view all the photos before making a purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy purchasing from Spirit Nectar you agree to comply with all of my shop policies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrystal will be shipped with protective padding.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spirit Nectar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53129256108399,"sku":"purple scapolite - 27","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0888\/7913\/7135\/files\/il_fullxfull.8201371133_e6xu.jpg?v=1781842692","url":"https:\/\/www.spiritnectar.com\/products\/scapolite-on-matrix-purple-crystal-89108","provider":"Spirit Nectar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
