Three natural blue apatite ovals in a bright, refreshing aqua-teal color, these small gems carry an intensity of blue that makes them stand out well beyond their modest weight. The color ranges slightly across the trio, with the deeper pieces showing a more saturated teal-blue and the lighter one leaning toward a paler aqua, which together create a naturally varied but harmonious set. Characteristic silky needle inclusions add a soft inner texture, and the faceting is well-executed with good light return.
Sourced from Africa and completely untreated, these blue apatites are ready for use in jewelry as-is. The slight natural color variation across the set adds visual interest when the stones are set side by side. At 5mm oval they are ideal for petite earring studs or a small pendant cluster. Neon blue apatite delivers a lot of color impact for its price, which makes a set like this a practical choice for designers and collectors. Sold as a set of three.
Natural neon blue apatite, set of 3, 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.
