These are A-grade Amazonite palm stones from Amboasitra, Madagascar. Amazonite is a potassium feldspar in soft turquoise and sage tones, named after the Amazon River region. Each palm stone runs 1.50-3 inches at Mohs 6-6.5, fully natural and untreated. A favorite confidence stone for meditation spaces and desks.
Amazonite is a cool mint-to-teal green, sometimes streaked with white. It's a variety of feldspar, and the color comes from trace lead and water in the crystal structure. Soft-looking even when it's well-polished.
This piece comes from Amboasitra, Madagascar.
It has been used in jewelry and ornamentation for thousands of years, including in ancient Egyptian artifacts.
In the tradition, amazonite shows up most often around quiet, steady calm, working through difficult feelings at your own pace, and settling into who you already are. It's traditionally linked to the heart and throat chakras. If that resonates, set one on a shelf where your eye lands on it during the day. Trust what feels useful and leave the rest.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
A starting place for your own quiet practice.
