Moonstone is a
translucent stone identified by the ray of light that spans it
surface, the moonstone is as popular today as it was in Victorian
times for use in rings and brooches.
00000Moonstone is
found in a variety of shades though white
and bluish white are by far the most common. However
we are now stocking both grey and peach coloured stones as well as the
more common varieties.

blue moonstone is heavily included and is sometimes called "Rainbow"
moonstone. Because of the inclusions the material is relative
inexpensive. Fine blue moonstone is a much more expensive material. It
is virtually inclusion free and this clarity is reflected in the price

is believed to be a true balancer of emotions and is reputed to be
very good for feminine energy. It is also said to help in childbirth. |
