This is a cool BANDED ARAGONITE crystal skull. Shown next to a US quarter coin for size comparison. I love the complexity of the patterns in these guys! It has soft golden browns, creamy tan, grey, and a little white here and there.
There are some tiny organic spots here and there that you may be able to feel subtly as you run a finger or fingernail over them. They come from inclusions that were close to the surface as the stone was polished. ALL inclusions present come from 100% natural formations in the stone. Check out how it works with subtle energies below!
It weighs about 2.8oz and measures approximately 49mm (just under 2" inches) long X 34mm (1 5/16" inches) tall. Code-20792

Aragonite has been used to boost self esteem as well as physical energy levels and has long been chosen to aid in reducing anger, as well as to relieve stress and anxiety.
Aragonite is thought to increase vitality, boost overall energy, and focus the Will, which is useful in many situations, including meditation, and when preparing to do healing work.
It is also said to enhance patience, inner understanding and one's higher perceptions: in this way it can be useful in divination.
In Crystal Healing, Aragonite is often used to reduce feelings of anger, stress, and assist with chronic fatigue. It has been used for PTSD, in conjunction with other stones.
It's also one of the stones of choice for hair loss.
The Chakra it is associated with depends somewhat on the color.
Native legends speak of crystal skulls as an inheritance from ancient times. Said to “talk and sing” they are believed to carry messages for all mankind, including what may be discovered when we overcome our fear of death.
