Collection: Yooperlite

Yooperlite is a popular trade name for sodalite-bearing syenite, a natural stone containing fluorescent sodalite. Its understated gray patterns reveal brilliant orange-yellow fluorescence under a 365nm UV blacklight. The name became associated with discoveries along Michigan's Lake Superior shoreline, but similar material occurs elsewhere, including the stones in our collection. Explore spheres, carved animals, bowls, hearts, and other polished pieces with their own distinctive patterns. UV light is required to reveal the glow.
