Learn more about Mookaite

Mookaite is found only in Australia and is actually a fossiliferous sedimentary rock. Microscopic examination shows this rock consists of the remains of tiny organisms known as radiolaria that have an unusual skeletal structure of opaline silica. When the seas retreated, these sediments were cemented into solid rock by silica carried in groundwater. Mookaite has been found in many very bright colors, reds, purples, tan, snow white, ivory white, pinks and many other shades. Sometimes but not often it will have black dendrites and in the hands of a careful lapidary the cabochons can be stunning especially if you get very lucky and run into a nice dendrite tree.

Our jewelry is fair trade and eco conscious of the earth. Each piece is handmade by Thai artisans that we buy direct from. A great gift idea for these Holidays: Christmas, Easter, Earth Day, Mother's Day, Hanukkah (Chanukah) Kwanzaa, Anniversaries and Birthdays.
