The name Eudialyte (pronounced yudai’ yelait) originated from the Greek “Eu”, meaning well and “Dialytos” meaning decomposable. This lovely Quebec cab shows a translucent magenta over white crystal. To complement its beauty, I've given it a sterling silver border wrap with twin swirls and tiny claws at the top. Treat someone special to this one-of-a-kind gift or buy it for yourself. The pendant measures 1 7/8" from top of bail and is 1" wide at the base. Note: Eudialyte is a rather rare mineral (actually composed of several minerals: sodium, calcium, cerium, iron, manganese, zirconium, silicon, hydrogen and chlorine) whose crystals are vitreous and translucent to transparent. It is normally found embedded in host rock and only occasionally forms crystal faces. Because of this and the fact that it has only a hardness of 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale, it is rarely cut as a gemstone. Still, its distinct color of deep magenta, sometimes with green, black or brown, makes make it popular among mineral collectors. Russia and canada are the chief sources for this rare gemstone. Enjoy this unique piece of hand-crafted jewelry.
