Three natural blue apatite rounds in the vivid aqua-teal color that Brazilian apatite is admired for. These compact 4mm stones are sparkling and bright, with the round cut releasing the stone's natural brilliance effectively. The color is a clean, saturated neon blue-green with good transparency, and fine silky needle inclusions typical of this gem variety add a subtle inner glow. The three pieces are well-matched in size and closely aligned in color, making them a practical set for paired earrings or accent work.
From Brazil and entirely untreated, these natural blue apatite rounds are ready to use in jewelry as-is. At 4mm they are a very standard size that works with an enormous range of commercially available settings.
Natural blue apatite, set of 3 rounds, sold loose.

About apatite
Apatite is a calcium phosphate. At 5 on the Mohs scale it is soft for a gemstone and sensitive to acids, heat and knocks, so it is best for pendants, earrings or a collection.
Cleaning
Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft toothbrush are all you need. Brush behind the stone too, where dust and skin oils collect, then rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Skip ultrasonic and steam cleaners: vibration and sudden temperature changes can crack it. Keep it away from acids, including lemon juice and vinegar, and household cleaners.
Wear and storage
With a hardness below 7 it can be scratched even by quartz, which is found in household dust, and a knock can chip it. Wipe it gently and store it on its own in a soft pouch. It suits pendants and earrings better than an everyday ring.
For your jeweler
These stones are untreated. Apatite should be kept away from the torch flame, acid pickle and the ultrasonic bath. A bezel or another protective setting suits it best.
