Ruby Fuchsite Ball

And another of our Ruby Fuchsite Balls with blue kyanite. There is a bit of zoisite too. Every side of this sphere looks different to the other! You can meditate with a different look each day.

I had two geologists on different occasions, black light the balls and prove that it is indeed real ruby.

All four crystals are present just in varying degrees. So what’s the difference? If the dominant colour (other than the crimson which is the ruby) is blue – its called ruby kyanite; but if pale green then its called ruby fuchsite; and if dark green then ruby zoisite.

This crystal has the capacity to help heal the heart, removing any blockages to loving energies and filling the void with positive, loving energies. Read more on the Healing tab, and here about the shape.

Most people will buy a ball like this to hold as the meditate and work. Others place them in display cabinets or on a display shelf for all to admire.

Enjoy the video of this ruby fuchsite ball. It is discounted to help it find its forever friend.
