These polished Nummite spheres from Greenland are carved from one of the oldest known stones on Earth, with an estimated age of nearly 3 billion years. Nummite is a rare metamorphic rock composed primarily of anthophyllite and gedrite, and is prized for its deep charcoal-to-black body color and internal shimmer that reveals itself under the right light.
Cut into sleek spherical forms, these pieces balance ancient geological history with a modern, sculptural presentation. The polished surfaces enhance the stone’s natural texture and bronze or golden flashes.
Each sphere is carved from natural Nummite and retains unique internal patterns, inclusions, and reflective areas—no two are ever exactly alike.
Pictures are examples. You will receive one Nummite crystal sphere
Approximately 1.5”-2” in diameter
Weight: Approximately 135g-165g
Authentic Nummite has a very distinct appearance and structure that sets it apart from common look-alike stones.
True Nummite displays deep charcoal to jet-black coloration with subtle internal shimmer that appears bronze, gold, or coppery when the stone is tilted under light. This shimmer is not iridescent— but can contain hues of blue and green. It’s layered, and almost botanical in appearance.
When polished, genuine Nummite often shows:
Irregular, layered textures rather than smooth banding
Subtle reflective flecks embedded within the stone, not sitting on the surface
A dense, heavy feel for its size
Natural variations and inclusions—perfectly uniform pieces are a red flag
Common imitations are often mislabeled black stones such as shungite, hematite, arfvedsonite, coppernite, gabbro, or glassy composites. These typically lack Nummite’s layered internal structure and instead appear either flat, overly shiny, or uniformly metallic.
All Nummite offered here is authentically sourced from Greenland, the original and true locality for this stone.
Nummite is found almost exclusively in Greenland, making it a highly sought-after material among collectors of rare and ancient stones. Its extreme age and limited locality add to its appeal, especially when presented in a refined cut like these towers.
Authentic Nummite from Greenland
Estimated age: ~3 billion years
Hand cut and polished sphere shape
Deep black and earthy colorations with lots of texture
Bronze and golden internal shimmer
Each piece is one of a kind
Nummite is often associated with grounding, protection, and deep inner strength. It is believed to support shadow work, personal transformation, and resilience, making it a popular choice for those drawn to ancient, powerful stones with a strong Earth connection.
Composition: Anthophyllite & Gedrite (metamorphic rock)
Formation: High-grade metamorphism
Locality: Greenland
Age: Approximately 3 billion years
