You will receive this beautiful specimen of Barite Rose, the state stone of Oklahoma. Legend has it that these beautiful little "roses" which are also known as "Cherokee Tears" were found all along the Trail of Tears. Left by Great Spirit in the night to remind the people that no matter how bad things may seem, there was always hope. They would gather these gifts from the Mother Earth to give them strength and courage to continue their journey. This lovely rose measure 1 7/8x1 7/8x1 1/4" thick. It will make a fine addition to your collection of unique minerals.

BARITE teaches us that "all things are possible" and encourages us to "go for our dreams" without fear and without restraint. It amplifies and enhances friendship, harmony and love and is especially beneficial in "new" relationships. Barite is also a great companion stone for those seeking to rid themselves of addictions, especially those which came to be as a result of "trapped" feelings or "emotional baggage".
