- Angelite is a very soft stone; please store each piece individually in a thick pouch. We recommend that you remove your jewellery before engaging in any physical activity
- It must never be wet. Water makes it porous and eventually causes it to crumble, as it alters its composition. It is therefore essential that it is cleaned using a dry method
- Avoid contact with corrosive products, such as detergents and other household cleaning products, which could damage it
- Apply your cosmetics (perfume, creams) before putting on your gemstone
- Store your jewellery in a dry place, away from light and heat
- There are several ways to cleanse your stones; click here: caring for and cleansing semi-precious stones
Angelite is a semi-precious stone with a soft, soothing blue colour, whose name derives from its symbolic connection with the spiritual world. This name is, in fact, a trade name for a light blue variety of anhydrite. This term derives from the Ancient Greek word ‘anhudros’, meaning ‘without water’, and describes its distinctive molecular structure. This stone is formed when large bodies of salt water evaporate in an arid climate. Its chemical composition is characterised by the complete absence of water molecules.
The blue variety, known as angelite, was not discovered and brought to market until 1987, following the discovery of significant deposits in Peru. Even today, it comes mainly from that country.
The quintessential spiritual stone, angelite balances the throat chakra and encourages you to communicate with gentleness and sincerity. It brings wisdom and fosters the development of intuition. It supports you during your meditations and facilitates connection to subtle energies and higher planes. Its comforting presence offers immediate relief from everyday stresses, helping you to rediscover inner peace.

Tumbled angelite
Sold individually.
Tumbled stones:
Our collection of tumbled stones includes a wide variety of minerals. Each offers a unique range of colours, patterns and textures that reflect the Earth’s mineral diversity.
Tumbled stones are pieces of raw mineral that have been carefully shaped by human hands.
This is a mechanical process during which the raw stones are polished.
The minerals are usually placed in a rotating drum containing water and an abrasive. This process takes around ten days.
As the stones rub against one another, they become polished into pebble-like shapes.
Whether for meditation, interior decoration or to expand your mineral collection, you’re sure to find something to your liking in our online shop.
Angelite:
Angelite is known for its sky-blue colour, which ranges from light blue to blue-green.
‘Anhydrite’ derives from the Greek word ‘anhudros’, meaning ‘without water’. Inclusions of strontium and other elements give anhydrite its blue colour.
Angelite crystals form in anhydrite deposits that have undergone chemical alteration under water pressure.
The main angélite deposits are found in Peru, Germany, Egypt, Mexico and the United States.
