Discover the Magic of Yooperlite Jewelry
Crazy Turtle Lady is excited to offer a collection of unique Yooperlite jewelry that highlights the natural beauty and mesmerizing glow of Yooperlite stones. Found in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Yooperlite is a rare type of Syenite rock that contains fluorescent sodalite, which gives it an enchanting orange glow under UV light. Sharon Marsh, the artisan behind Crazy Turtle Lady, uses these extraordinary stones to create one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces that radiate a mystical glow.
What Is Yooperlite?
Yooperlite is a type of rock discovered in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula in 2017, famous for its ability to fluoresce under UV light. When exposed to UV light, Yooperlite stones glow a bright, striking color, revealing their unique fluorescent properties. This captivating glow is due to the presence of sodalite, a mineral that naturally fluoresces in UV light. Found along the shores of Lake Superior, Yooperlite stones have become a sought-after material for collectors, rock hounds, and jewelers alike.
The stones themselves are often smooth and rounded, naturally polished by water erosion. However, it’s their stunning glow under ultraviolet light that sets them apart, creating a luminous effect that is nothing short of magical. Sharon carefully selects these stones to craft her Yooperlite jewelry collection, bringing their natural radiance into wearable art. Whether displayed as necklaces, rings, or earrings, each Yooperlite piece is designed to shine brightly in any setting.
