ANATASE EXTRA GRADE – NATURAL PRISMATIC CRYSTAL MEDALLION PENDANT & WHITE RHODIUM PLATED NECKLACE

Exclusive Gem Jewelry by LAZZERINI-GEOJOIAS

 A crystal rarer than Diamond, with an adamantine brilliance and futuristic aura. Anatase (TiO₂) occurs in unique geological environments and, when it appears with a perfect prismatic (euhedral) habit and transparency, becomes an object of desire for collectors and jewelers. In this piece, the protagonists are 2 natural crystals of EXTRA gemological grade, preserved in their original geometries in a floating memory image medallion pendant in stainless steel, accompanied by a white rhodium plated choker necklace. Minimalist luxury with a scientific signature.

 Why this piece is unique

• True rarity: EXTRA gem quality Anatase is uncommon in jewelry; most specimens are found in mineral collections.

• Brilliance and presence: adamantine to submetallic luster, intense reflections and subtle pleochroism that reveals nuances according to the light.

• Author's design: clean and solid setting, with a noble white rhodium plating (premium finish, high durability, hypoallergenic and bright silver appearance), which respects the natural morphology of the crystal.

• Technical curation: selection and identification by a senior geologist-gemologist (42+ years) — authenticity and origin guaranteed in Brazil.

• Unique piece: each crystal presents its own micro-characteristics (striations, pyramidal faces, perfect prismatic shapes and transparency), making your geojewel unrepeatable.

 The science behind the beauty

Anatase is one of the three natural polymorphs of titanium dioxide (along with rutile and brookite). It crystallizes in the tetragonal crystal system, frequently in dipyramidal/prismatic forms with sharp edges.

 Properties that enchant: photocatalytic effect, high refractive index (≈ 2.49–2.56) and high dispersion, responsible for the “fire” and striking shine; birefringence 0.046–0.073. Natural colors range from brown, honey, gray-black, reddish to blue or greenish tones — always with a mineral personality.

 Traditional Meaning & Energy

In the crystalline tradition, Anatase is associated with the Air Element: focus, mental clarity, study, and communication. It is cited as a stone of applied wisdom, which favors learning, organization of thought, and active calm for decisions. On a subtle level, many use it to protect the energy field and support creative/intellectual routines.

(Note: metaphysical properties are traditional beliefs and do not replace professional guidance.)

 How to use and care

Avoid removing the crystals from inside the image medallion.

 Style

White rhodium brings a clean & contemporary language — it combines with neutral palettes, all-black or light tailoring. Use it only for a mineral highlight or layer with thin chains. In evening looks, the adamantine shine takes center stage under artificial light.
