  Scapolite is a rare gemstone that is named after the Greek word, "skapos" meaning stick or stem, due to the long columnar formation of its crystals. The most common color of scapolite is honey yellow, but it can also be violet, orange, pink, brown, gray or colorless. Its brilliance and vitreous luster make it a desirable gemstone and collector's item.Fine gemstone quality scapolite is extremely rare and is sought after by gem and mineral collectors. Due to the rarity of transparent gem quality material, scapolite is considered to be one of the 'lesser-known' gemstones. It also lacks the hardness and durability for most mainstream jewelry use, so it is classified as a collector's stone. Scapolite is not typically treated or enhanced in any way, but some lavender colored stones have been known to be heat treated or irradiated. Irradiated scapolite usually begins as a yellow gemstone and results in a lavender color, though naturally violet scapolite is also available. Scapolite is transparent to translucent and typically occurs with excellent transparency.
