Charoite is a strong, translucent lavender to purple in color, reminding some of a granite or marble with its pearly, swirling luster. However, it is a discrete mineral rather than a rock. Charoite is strictly massive in nature, and fractures are conchoidal. Wholesale prices are offered for Charoite beads at Dream Factory Beads and pangaeabodyart in 2008.
