Set of 4-inch harmonizer rods crafted from two distinctly powerful Russian minerals — Charoite and Shungite. Together, they unite the transformative energy of Charoite’s swirling violet silicate with the grounding, carbon-rich conductivity of Shungite, creating a scientifically fascinating and visually striking geological pairing that symbolizes balance between transformation and stability.

This harmonizer set pairs two of Russia’s most iconic minerals — Charoite from the Murun Massif in Siberia and Shungite from Karelia, each representing opposite yet complementary geological forces.
Charoite is a rare silicate mineral formed through contact metasomatism, where limestone interacts with nepheline syenite intrusions. The result is a complex matrix of potassium, barium, calcium, and silicate layers displaying vivid violet, lavender, and lilac hues with pearly chatoyancy.
Shungite, by contrast, is a carbonaceous mineraloid over 2 billion years old, composed primarily of amorphous carbon containing fullerenes (C₆₀, C₇₀) — unique molecular carbon spheres studied for their adsorption, conductivity, and electromagnetic shielding properties.
Together, they unite ancient carbon purity with metamorphic silicate beauty, reflecting Russia’s deep geological diversity.

Charoite formed about 140 million years ago within a deep geological pocket of the Murun massif — a location so remote that it remained undiscovered until the 1940s. Its characteristic swirling purple patterns result from the alignment of fibrous silicate crystals and trace manganese, which produces its signature color. It is found only in this single deposit in Russia, making it one of the world’s rarest decorative stones.
Shungite, conversely, was formed in the early Proterozoic eon through the metamorphic transformation of ancient organic sediments into a carbon-dominant structure. Containing conductive fullerenes and layered micro-graphite inclusions, Shungite represents one of Earth’s oldest examples of organic-to-mineral carbon evolution.
The pairing of these two minerals — one ancient and carbon-based, the other young and silicate-based — symbolizes the geological continuum between life, matter, and metamorphosis.
Shungite’s Physical Properties:
Electromagnetic Field (EMF) Absorption: Laboratory tests demonstrate that Shungite’s conductive carbon lattice can attenuate electromagnetic radiation through reflection and partial absorption.
Adsorption and Filtration: Used in Russian water purification systems for its ability to bind heavy metals and organic compounds.
Electrical Conductivity: Exhibits semi-metallic conductivity useful in experimental shielding materials.
Charoite’s Mineralogical Interest:
Complex Silicate Chemistry: Over 15 rare elements are found within Charoite’s structure, making it a model for metamorphic silicate studies.
Fibrous Aggregate Formation: The mineral’s unique fibrous crystallization under low-temperature metasomatic conditions is rare in the silicate family.
Each harmonizer rod is 4 inches long, with one made of polished Shungite — deep black with reflective sheen — and the other of Charoite, exhibiting swirling patterns of purple, lavender, and cream.
Together, they create a visual and tactile duality: the Shungite rod representing grounding conductivity, and the Charoite rod symbolizing insight and transformation.
Collector’s display of rare paired Russian minerals.
Educational demonstration for conductivity and mineral contrast.
Symbolic harmonizer set representing balance of grounding and intuition.
Geological teaching aid illustrating metamorphic vs. carbonaceous mineral processes.
(For educational and decorative use only — not a medical device.)
In symbolic and meditative traditions, Shungite is associated with purification and grounding, while Charoite is linked to spiritual transformation and emotional clarity. Together, they are said to represent integration — connecting Earth’s stability with higher awareness.
Wipe gently with a soft cloth after handling.
