Phenakite is one of the rarest minerals on earth with only a handful of sources and tiny amounts coming out of most currently mined pockets. Phenakite from Nigeria is one of the rarest in the world, especially ones of this size and clarity. 

Phenakite is a highly transformational stone with an intensely high vibrational frequency. It is on par with Moldavite and other high vibrational stones.

This stone was mined by a local miner over 10 years ago and has exquisite clarity and etchings that are a natural part of the crystal’s growth habit. 

Phenakite of high clarity and purity is rare and costly in today's market. We are privileged to offer a diverse inventory of this mineral from various global sources, available both as rough specimens and cut gemstones. 

This phenakite is perfect for stone medicine elixirs, stone medicine grids, on-the-body layouts, meditating with (place over the third eye or crown chakra) to open up channels of awareness and communication with the higher divine realms. This piece would also make a wonderful piece of jewelry or addition to a sacred altar.

Phenakite is a great collector’s stone because it’s one of the rarest minerals on earth and is a cousin to the beryl family - but it is not a beryl, a common mistake. It has nearly the same chemical composition as beryl, but lacks the aluminum element and is a pure beryllium silicate.

VIBRATIONAL PROFILE:

Phenakite is one of only a handful of stones that holds and emits the universal centering vibration, which is the centering / harmonizing vibration found at all sacred sites and power spots around the world. The centering vibration harmonizes the entire human energy field and is the most powerful force in nature.

Phenakite also holds and emits the Divine White Light frequency ~ it is the literal physical crystallization of the Divine White Light frequency.

With these two powerful vibrational frequencies emitted by this stone, it is categorized as a crystal adaptogen - a stone that harmonizes the human energy field, bringing it back to homeostasis.

PHENAKITE CLARITY GRADES:

  • Good: milky/cloudy translucence with inclusions and black, brown or yellow discoloration due to other trace minerals (typically from Brazil and some in Ukraine). Vibrational quality is good, but not of the highest potency.
  • Better: slightly cloudy to somewhat clear transparency with minor inclusions and light discoloration. Found in almost all phenakite locations.
  • Best: Highest grade and most vibrationally potent. Ultra-high transparency (crystal clear with ability to read text through the stone) of at least 90-95% with little to no inclusions or discoloration. Typical of phenakite from Nigeria, Burma (Myanmar) and sometimes Ukraine.

FAQ

Are the stones you use natural?

Yes! All of the stones we use are high-grade, premium, and 100% natural just as Gaia made them. They are not treated in any way (heat, irradiation, dye, stabilized, etc.) because some treatments alter the vibrational nature of the stone and can be detrimental to the energy field of the wearer.

Do pieces come in other sizes or stone combinations?

Each piece made is unique and not made to order. Therefore, this piece cannot be altered and does not come in other sizes or stone combinations. However, if you like this piece and want it longer, made with different stones, or altered in any way, please reach out to request a custom order via the Contact page.

Who made the pieces in your store?

Each piece is handcrafted with intention and love by founder Ashley Sohl. She hand-picks every stone and component that is used, and handmakes each piece with care and attention. We do not believe in mass produced, cookie-cutter jewelry. Sanctuary Vibrational Jewelry makes unique stone ally adornments for inner journeys and personal transformation.

How do you know the vibration of the stones?

The vibrational qualities are painstakingly tested by Ashley using a comibination of ancient and modern vibrational scientific techniques from different schools of thought, including BioGeometry, physical Radiesthesia, New Homeopathy, and more.

Do you use real gold?

Yes! We use solid 14k gold. We recently started offering gold-filled as an option to make pieces accessible to more people. If gold-filled doesn't show up as an option, please contact me to request a custom.

I want a piece that is sold out. What should I do?

Every piece I make is a genuine one of a kind. If you see a piece you like, but is sold out, you can request a custom order to have me make another one. But please be aware that some stones are very rare and I may not be able to source the exact same stones. Use the contact page to send me a message and we can discuss from there.
