A rarity from Lake Constance: brown aragonite from the area of Bregenz (Austria)!
Diameter of the polished aragonite balls approx. 6mm, length of the ball strand approx. 40cm.
The banded aragonite in beige and brown tones is used in modern gemstone therapy for the themes of growth and relief. The mineral can support to always stay on the ball and to continue to persistently pursue the set goal, even under strong stress and unclear situations.
Aragonite as a mineral was described for the first time in 1796 by the German mineralogist Abraham Gottlob Werner and named by after the place of discovery in the province of Aragon in northeastern Spain; the spelling Arragonite is therefore not correct.
