Leave it up to designer Carrie Elizabeth to introduce us to another exquisite gemstone. For the spiritual folks, the rare Sodalite is believed to have healing energies which cleanse your aura and remove bad feelings. Thanks Carrie!
4. Ametrine
You're probably thinking we're just making things up now. We would never, we care about you too much to lie to you! The uncommon Ametrine is a mixture of two dazzling gems, amethyst, and citrine. In this enchanting stone, you'll see yellows, oranges, and purples.
5. Tanzanite
You might think you're looking at an Amethyst, but this is actually a Tanzanite. This sublime stone can only be found in a small mining area in Tanzania(psss...this is where it gets its name). Fun fact, the violet-hued tanzanite wasn't discovered until the 1960s.
