Mineralogical properties and the special nature of the aura refinement

Sphalerite is a zinc sulfide mineral with an exceptionally high refractive index – higher than that of many gemstones. Its natural luster and inner brilliance make it one of the most fascinating minerals of all. The aura refinement, in which the finest metal oxide layers are vapor-deposited onto the polished surface in a vacuum, enhances this effect and immerses the stone in an iridescent play of color that varies depending on the light.

• Height: Approx. 15–18 cm (varies by piece, as this is a natural product)

Care and handling of your obelisk

To preserve the unique beauty of your piece in the long term, we recommend the following care instructions:

• Clean the surface only with a soft, slightly damp cloth
• Do not use chemicals, cleaning agents, or ultrasonic cleaners – the aura coating is delicate
• Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, as intense UV radiation can affect the coating
• Place upright on a stable, smooth surface to avoid scratches or tipping over
• For energetic cleansing, smoke cleansing with sage or placing it on selenite are suitable methods

Frequently asked questions

What is an Aura Sphalerite Obelisk and how does it differ from a regular sphalerite?

An Aura Sphalerite Obelisk is a sphalerite crystal polished into the classic obelisk shape, additionally refined through a vacuum vapor deposition process with fine metal oxide layers. This so-called aura coating creates a spectacular iridescent play of color on the surface and gives the already brilliant sphalerite an even more intense, rainbow-like appearance that an untreated sphalerite does not have in this form.

Is every Aura Sphalerite Obelisk approx. 15–18 cm a one-of-a-kind piece?

Yes, absolutely. Since sphalerite is a natural mineral, the patterning, inner transparency, color depth, and the exact expression of the aura effect vary from piece to piece. Size and weight may also vary slightly within the specified range of approx. 15–18 cm. This guarantees you a unique piece that exists in no other form.

Who is the Aura Sphalerite Obelisk particularly well suited for?

This obelisk is equally suitable for mineral collectors seeking a rare and visually impressive piece, for wellness and spirituality enthusiasts who want to design their space energetically, and for anyone looking for an extraordinary, high-quality gift. Its size of approx. 15–18 cm makes it a striking decorative element on a shelf, desk, or sideboard – both visible and impactful.
