History and folklore
Fuchsite is a green form of the mineral muscovite mica, colored by chromium. It was named in 1842 after Johann Nepomuk von Fuchs, a German chemist and mineralogist. It shines with a soft glitter because it is built from many thin, flaky layers. It often hosts small rubies or kyanite blades. Modern witches value it for gentle healing and for working with plants and nature spirits, though it has no long folklore of its own.
