Fluorite - Meaning

Fluorite is a transparent to translucent stone that comes in a variety of hues, including colorless, blue, pink, yellow, green, and violet (almost black). It often has a glassy luster, enhancing its striking appearance.

Fluorite was first described in 1530 by Agricola, taking its name from the Latin word fluere, meaning "to flow," due to its low melting point.

In ancient Rome, patrician households displayed wealth and refined taste with fluorite vases and goblets. The Roman aristocrat and epicurean Gaius Petronius wrote about the astonishing price of fluorite cups, which could sell for up to 100,000 denarii each. Emperor Nero reportedly paid a staggering 1 million sesterces for a vessel carved from a single fluorite crystal—an amount that could have bought two or three modest middle-class homes at the time.

During the Late Middle Ages, alchemists found fluorite mysterious. When heated, it emitted a soft blue or green glow in the dark, resembling an owl’s eyes. This phenomenon later inspired the term fluorescence, which describes the glowing effect of certain materials under ultraviolet light—first observed in fluorite itself.
