Question:
I have a member of my family who is fighting skin cancer and I want to give her a gift to make her feel better.
I have read up on healing properties on stones and have read that Sugilite is a good one for cancer.
I am not real savy on stones or terms associated with gems. I have found an auction with this "Briolette Sugilite" as the description.
what is the briolette? is it still a genuine sugilite?
Answer:
http://www.answers.com/briolette&r=67
bri·o·lette (brē'ə-lĕt') pronunciation
n.
A pear-shaped or oval gem, especially a diamond, cut in long triangular facets.
[French, perhaps alteration (influenced by brillant, brilliant) of brignolette, diminutive of brignole, dried plum, from Brignoles, a town of southeast France.]
Answer:
so it refers to the cut or shape of the gem and not the gem itself.
cool Thank you!
everything I googled implied it was a gem of its own
