AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

It is a beautiful Charolite, natural, authentic, unchanged.
Charoite has a very intense and special purple color with the unique pattern of swirls, feathers and needles. There may be patches of stars in black (Aegirine), orange (Tinaksite) and also transparent crystals (Microcline Feldspar). Due to its rare color change, the Charolite appears very lively, making the piece an exclusive decorative object.
The Charolite was discovered in 1978 and is a very rare mineral found only in Siberia, Russia. It is named after the Chara River, which flows past the mountain where it is mined.
