 SUGILITE: is a rare polycrystalline rock named after the Japanese geologist, Ken-ichi Sugi, who discovered the first specimens in 1944. It was only introduced to the American jewelry market as recently as 1984. Sugilite is typically a deep lavender, less commonly reddish violet (magenta) or bluish purple. It’s purple color is due to the presence of manganese and often exhibits banding, black matrixing, mottling or pleasing patterns of reddish brown or yellow. Because of the presence of more than one of these hues; some pieces appear bluish purple in daylight and reddish purple under incandescent light. Sugilite has a waxy luster and is typically opaque while some of the more rare and expensive stones are beautifully translucent with little to no matrixing or blotching.

"Block" Gemstone is the general term used to describe either a reconstituted or man-made reproduction which may or may not contain any natural byproduct or gemstone partials. The reference to "block" more often describes the process whereby a mixture of resins and dyes are combined to produce a loaf sized block suitable for carving small heshi beads and intricate pieces for inlay work. 

It is believed that Sugilite strengthens the heart, promotes physical healing and reduces stress. It is thought to balance the mind, body and spirit encouraging a sense of peace, well being and spiritual love. It is also said that Sugilite both protects against and helps to dissipate anger and other negative energies.
