Scapolite is a rare gemstone that is named after the Greek word, skapos meaning stick or stem1. It is a term commonly used to describe a single gem type, but more accurately refers to an aluminosilicate series of minerals that includes meionite, marialite, and silvialite23. Scapolite gemstones are often shades of honey-yellow but can present in other colors such as violet, orange, pink, brown, gray or colorless.
