The hand flatterer in the shape of a lentil made of garnet (Almandine) is approx. 30 x 45mm in size. The raw material for the Small Palmstones comes from India.
Garnet and its effects are already described by Hildegard von Bingen as a stone under the name "carbuncle": "The carbuncle grows during the lunar eclipse and is nevertheless warm. [...] That is why it has its glow from the fire of the sun when the moon rises, and that is why it shines more in the night than during the day. So it grows until the glow of the sun gives birth to it." (Source: Michael Gienger / The healing stones of Hildegard von Bingen)
Garnet (Almandine) is also valued in modern gemstone healing; the mineral energizes and activates one's own powers. Use the effect of the mineral e.g. in a massage application, as a hand flatterer or to lay on!
