Fluorite, also known as fluorspar, is a colorful and highly valued mineral due to its vibrant fluorescence when exposed to ultraviolet light, which gives it its name. The Mohs scale of mineral hardness is a scale from 1 to 10, with 1 being the softest and 10 being the hardest. It characterizes scratch resistance of minerals through the ability of harder material to scratch softer material. Flourite is a 4 on the Mohs hardness scale. What distinguishes fluorite is its wide color range and many hues – from deep purples and blues to vibrant greens, sunny yellows, and even colorless varieties. Some, but not all, fluorites display fluorescence under ultraviolet light (UV). The beads on this necklace do display fluorescence when a black light is used on them.
In addition to their beauty, many people claim that fluorite beads are symbolic of protection.
How to Take Care of Your Fluorite Jewelry
Some fluorites may fade with prolonged exposure to light, so store any fluorite jewelry out of the light. Also store them separately from other harder gemstones to prevent contact scratches. Since fluorites are slightly soluble in water; never submerge them. Clean them only with a warm damp cloth, mild detergent, and soft brush; and don't ever use mechanical cleaning systems.
