Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a natural specimen?

A: Yes. This product is sold as an authentic natural Vivianite blade specimen from Brazil, so shape, colour, surface texture and formation will vary naturally.

A: Vivianite’s colour is linked to changes in the oxidation state of iron within the mineral. Fresh material can be much paler, while oxidation is associated with deeper blue and green-blue tones.
