Spotted Stonehenge Bluestone Tumblestone Preseli Dolerite (Bluestone) is a chemically altered (naturally) igneous rock containing Plagioclase Feldspar and Augite (a pyroxene mineral). It is medium grained dark and heavy rock, harder than granite. Preseli Bluestone tools, such as axes, have been discovered all over the British Isles. Ancient legends tell of the magical and healing properties of the Preseli Bluestone. This tumblestone is of the spotted Bluestone from the same location as the stones used in the original Stonehenge structure (the deposit of this spotted Bluestone is a protected site, this example has been collected from deposits carried off the mountain by glacial action and deposited nearby on private land). It measures approx. 3.6 cms. Check out my other items ! Be sure to add me to your favourites list !
