Turritella stone, also known as Turritella agate, is a unique fossilized sedimentary rock found predominantly in Maharashtra, India.
It is composed of agate formed within Turritella shells—a genus of marine gastropod mollusks—whose intricate spiral shells became mineralized over millions of years.
The region of Maharashtra, especially areas near the Western Ghats, is rich in these fossilized deposits, dating back to the Cretaceous period, approximately 65-145 million years ago. Historically, Turritella stone was valued for its striking appearance, featuring swirling patterns and earthy tones, making it popular among artisans and jewelers.
Culturally, it has been regarded as a symbol of natural history and ancient marine life, often used in jewelry, carvings, and amulets to connect with nature's timeless beauty.
Metaphysically, Turritella stone is believed to promote mental clarity, emotional stability, and spiritual growth. It is thought to enhance intuition, aid in meditation, and foster a sense of grounding and connection to the earth. Its historical significance combined with its aesthetic and metaphysical qualities has made Turritella stone a treasured artifact in Indian culture, symbolizing both the Earth's ancient past and spiritual enlightenment.
