This is natural ruby zoisite, and its color, pattern and inclusions vary from piece to piece. Those natural differences are part of what makes each one unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat size is it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose 50-60mm or 60-70mm across. Both sizes display well on a small stand and are comfortable to hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the sphere come with a stand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA stand is not included with this listing. A simple ring or tripod stand keeps a sphere from rolling and lifts it so the light shows its colors and patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Ruby Zoisite?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRuby zoisite, sometimes called anyolite, is green zoisite with embedded crystals of ruby and black hornblende. The contrast of red against green is natural, and the pattern changes completely from one sphere to the next. The ruby areas are harder than the zoisite around them, so the polish can show subtle texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFurther Reading\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/red-crystals-meaning-properties-powerful-uses\"\u003eRed Crystals Meaning\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/crystal-spheres-why-this-shape-is-so-powerful\"\u003eWhy Crystal Spheres Are So Powerful\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBring home this ruby zoisite sphere and give it a place where you will see it every day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ali","offers":[{"title":"Ruby Zoisite \/ 50-60mm","offer_id":48284963405995,"sku":"1005010617320158-5-6c","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ruby Zoisite \/ 60-70mm","offer_id":48284963373227,"sku":"1005010617320158-6-7cm","price":58.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/0345\/5915\/files\/Ruby-Zoisite-Sphere-Spheres-Ruby-Zoisite-50-60mm.jpg?v=1792293518","url":"https:\/\/www.crystaldestiny.com\/products\/ruby-zoisite-sphere","provider":"Crystal Destiny","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
