Description
Tiffany Stone (Bertrandite or Morado Opal)—its typically purple color and varied appearance make it highly recognizable. The stone has a strong connection to higher energies, amplifies premonitions, fosters creativity in thought, allows the wearer to accurately interpret messages, provides a clear connection with guides, and reveals the divine within oneself and others. Tiffany Stone is sometimes also called Opalized Fluorite and is therefore clearly a combination of stones, including Beryl, one of the lightest yet most energetically potent minerals. It is exceptionally rare and powerful. The gemstone is found only in Utah, USA. The mineral Bertrandite (Tiffany Stone or Morado Opal) is a beryllium-containing sorosilicate with the chemical formula Be4Si2O7(OH)2. Bertrandite is a colorless to pale yellow orthorhombic mineral with a hardness of 6-7 on the Mohs scale. It was first discovered near Nantes, France, in 1883 and named after the French mineralogist Emile Bertrand. It is often found in beryllium-rich pegmatites. Bertrandite often occurs as a pseudomorphic substitution of beryl. This mineral, like beryl, is a beryllium ore.
