{"product_id":"brazilian-phenakite-gemstone-3-70ct-oval-eye-clean","title":"Brazilian Phenakite Gemstone | 3.70ct Oval | Eye Clean","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 3.70 carat oval cut phenakite gemstone from Brazil is clear and brilliant, with eye clean clarity, meaning no inclusions are visible to the naked eye. The oval measures 20 x 10mm and grades 'Best' on my phenakite clarity scale (described below). Most Brazilian phenakite comes out of the ground at 'Good' grade with a milky body, so an eye clean faceted stone from Brazil is a rare find. This gemstone is completely untreated, and the oval is a mine cut, meaning it was faceted near the source rather than calibrated to standard jewelry dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhenakite is one of the rarest minerals on Earth, with only a few sources producing gem-quality material in limited quantities. Faceted phenakite at this size and clarity is getting rarer to find on the open market, which makes this oval well suited to both collectors and custom jewelry designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHAT THIS STONE IS USED FOR\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhenakite is one of the most direct tools available for working with the crown and etheric energy centers above the head, and Brazilian phenakite resonates with the third eye, crown, and etheric chakras. One advantage of a faceted gemstone over a rough crystal is the culet, the pointed tip at the base of the stone, which acts as a focused energy director, much like the tip of a Vogel Crystal. By pointing the culet directly at the body, you can concentrate and deliver phenakite's vibrational frequencies into a specific point instead of letting them radiate outward in all directions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor meditation, hold this gemstone at the crown or third eye, or place it at the apex of a crystal grid as a directing stone. In fine jewelry, the 20 x 10mm oval makes a strong center stone for a pendant or ring, and for optimum energy conduction phenakite is best set in platinum, though gold and silver are also beautiful and suitable options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVIBRATIONAL PROFILE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhite Frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e Phenakite is one of only a handful of stones confirmed to embody the white frequency, and the metaphysical record describes it as emitting divine white light. The white frequency serves as the universal donor, containing the qualities of all other color frequencies in a gentle, safe form suitable for nearly any condition. Energetically, white illuminates and clears the energy body, restoring resonance with divine light. It can be charged with any specific energy quality and then broadcast that quality outward. This is why clear quartz, which resonates strongly with the white band, is considered the foundation stone of crystal energy and healing practices. In Christian esotericism, the Holy Spirit appears as white light, and Steiner described white light as increasing in luminosity at higher spiritual levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltraviolet (UV) Frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e The ultraviolet frequency is especially effective for addressing chronic pain, repairing damaged cells, and supporting DNA repair at the cellular level. Peter Mandel's research identified 370 nanometers as the optimal wavelength for clearing the subtle informational imprints of pain and illness within cells. Energetically, ultraviolet dissolves blockages and facilitates the movement of energy between the physical and spiritual levels, while also restoring deep yin reserves. In BioGeometry, Dr. Ibrahim Karim recognized the higher harmonic of ultraviolet as a key component of the centering vibration, which is linked to spiritual light. Dr. Samuel Sagan observed that the appearance of dark purple light, a signature of UV, signals the opening of the astral plane to one's inner vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal Centering Vibration:\u003c\/strong\u003e All phenakite, regardless of its origin or clarity grade, embodies the universal centering vibration. This is the non-polarized, equilibrating frequency found at every sacred power spot on Earth, such as Stonehenge, Machu Picchu, Mount Shasta, and the Egyptian Pyramids. The universal centering vibration returns whatever it connects with to its own center of perfect balance, functioning the way adaptogenic herbs do in plant medicine. This places phenakite in an exceptionally rare category of crystal adaptogens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMINERAL TYPE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Phenakite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCUT:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oval (mine cut, not calibrated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePHENOMENON:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOLOR:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear and brilliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLARITY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best grade (eye clean, ultra-high transparency)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTRANSPARENCY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Transparent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWEIGHT:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.70 ct. \/ 0.75 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 x 10mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eORIGIN:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brazil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTREATMENT:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHARDNESS:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5-8 (Mohs scale)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREFRACTIVE INDEX (RI):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.654-1.670\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBIREFRINGENCE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFIC GRAVITY (SG):\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.96-3.00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCRYSTAL SYSTEM:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hexagonal (trigonal subclass)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCHEMICAL COMPOSITION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Be₂SiO₄\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePHENAKITE CLARITY GRADES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGOOD:\u003c\/strong\u003e Milky to cloudy translucence with inclusions and minor discoloration from trace minerals.
