PORPHYRY

n.[Gr. purple; L. porphyrites.] A mineral consisting of a homogeneous ground with crystals of some other mineral imbedded, giving to the mass a speckled complexion. One variety of Egyptian porphyry has a purple ground, whence the name of the species; but the homogeneous ground with imbedded crystals, being all that is essential to porphyry, its composition and colors are consequently various. Porphyry is very hard, and susceptible of a fine polish.
Porphyry is composed of paste in which are disseminated a multitude of little angular and granuliform parts, of a color different from the ground.

 

PORPHYRY-SHELL

n.An animal or shell of the genus Murex. It is of the snail kind, the shell consisting of one spiral valve. From one species of this genus was formerly obtained a liquor that produced the Tyrian purple.
