Apatite – The Gemstone of Inspiration
The apatite used in the Bernd Wolf manufactory captivates with its exceptional petrol-blue color and fascinating brilliance, evoking positive associations instantly. Apatite occurs in various hues, from intense blue and soft green to bright yellow. The striking blue, especially popular in jewelry, is created by the presence of iron and manganese.
Apatite is found globally in limestone sediments, with significant deposits in Brazil, Russia, Madagascar, Canada, and the USA. The apatite used by Bernd Wolf comes from Madagascar and stands out for its remarkable quality, making it a true eye-catcher. This gemstone is perfect for adding an elegant pop of color to any outfit.
The name "apatite" derives from the Greek word meaning “deceptive stone,” as it was often mistaken for other minerals. In modern medicine, apatite also plays a role: hydroxylapatite, a component of human bones, is used as a bone substitute. Apatite jewelry is also said to have a positive effect on mood and well-being, fostering creativity, inspiring ideas, and enhancing communication skills.
