Raw Tiffany Stone is one of the rarest and most fascinating stones to observe in its natural form. In its raw state, the gradients of purple, cream, lavender, white, and sometimes pink are already visible, creating a blend of fused colors that resembles a watercolor painting by geology. Each raw piece is a small, unique universe of colors, some dominated by purple, others by cream, and still others showing spectacular transitions between hues. Tiffany Stone is an opalized composite rock containing bertrandite, opal, fluorite, calcite, and quartz – a unique mineral cocktail that forms in only one place in the world: the Brush Wellman mine in Juab County, Utah. This mine extracts beryllium, and Tiffany Stone is an accidental byproduct, most of which is destroyed during mining. Each raw piece recovered is a survivor.
In lithotherapy, raw Tiffany Stone is considered the most powerful form of this stone of psychic perception. The intact structure, with its multiple composition of five minerals, is said to diffuse a profound spiritual connection, psychic opening, and amplified intuition more directly than the polished version. Placed in a meditation space, it immediately elevates the vibration of the room and creates a field conducive to channeling, communication with guides, and expanded consciousness experiences. In a bedroom, it supports nocturnal intuitive work and promotes meaningful dreams. Held in the hand, it opens the third eye chakra and crown chakra with remarkable fluidity: the opal brings fluid intuition, fluorite provides structuring, quartz amplifies, calcite clarifies, and bertrandite offers subtle grounding. It is the stone for those seeking a rare spiritual connection, not accessible to everyone, as rare as the stone itself.
For maintenance, no salt, no chemicals, no prolonged water exposure. Clean your raw Tiffany Stone with a soft, slightly damp cloth and recharge it in moonlight. With a hardness of 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, handle it with minimal attention and store it separately from harder stones.
