Turritella is a stunning stone known for its intricate patterns and fascinating history. Turritella is a fossil formation consisting of ancient snail shells that have been crystallised and silicified. These ancient freshwater snails were highly abundant around 50 million years ago in the Green River Formation in present-day Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming. When the snails died their shells sank to the bottom of the lake. Small amounts of microcrystalline silica in the groundwater slowly encompassed the cavities of the shell. This is believed to have occurred in a gel-like substance that eventually hardened over time into a Chalcedony. 

Turritella is believed to bring inner peace, enhance creativity, and deepen spiritual awareness.
