About Fluorite:
Fluorite is a delicate stone that commonly forms in green, purple, yellow, and blue crystal cubes. These crystals can contain any combination of the colors noted naturally, and color-changing varieties do exist (often blue to purple). While some stones can exhibit strong fluorescence, the name "fluorite" is actually derived from a Latin word that means "to flow," because of the mineral's usefulness as flux in iron smelting.
It is imperative to treat fluorite jewelry with care. Fluorite is both soft and delicate with a rating of 4 on the Mohs hardness scale. We suggest cleaning fluorite jewelry only on special occasions with nothing more than a soft cloth.
