Sodalite

Sodalite

Sodalite is a rich royal blue gemstone often accented with white calcite or grey veining, giving it a marbled, cloud-like appearance. Prized for its deep, calming color and matte-to-semi-gloss finish, Sodalite is frequently used in both modern and traditional jewelry. Though often mistaken for lapis lazuli, Sodalite has a more consistent blue tone and lacks pyrite flecks.

This stone is found in several parts of the world, including Brazil, Canada, and Namibia. In the context of Native American-inspired jewelry, Sodalite is admired for its grounding energy and is often used as a substitute for more expensive blue stones, offering an affordable yet beautiful alternative.
