Carved Shungite

 These adorable figurines, carved out of raw and natural Shungite, feature four different animals: a bird, hedgehog, bear, and owl.

Shungite is a rare black stone made of up to 99 percent of carbon.  It’s mainly found in Shunga, a village in Karelia, Russia. The stone has a unique composition.  It contains fullerenes, or 3-D spherical molecules made of 60 carbon atoms.  These molecules are hollow and sometimes called buckyballs. 

Here is a really interesting fact: Along with fullerenes, Shungite consists of nearly all the minerals on the periodic table.  The origin of Shungite is a mystery.  Typically, materials made of carbon come from decayed organic substances like old forests.  But the stone is thought to be at least 2 billion years old before organic life existed on the planet.

Cleaning Instructions: Clean this with a small, soft, bristled paint brush or a microfiber cloth.

Shipping Terms: Your order will be carefully packed and shipped via USPS or UPS within 3 weekdays upon a completed checkout.
