Strand of beads made from synthetic, semi-precious stone SUNSTONE in the shape of a ball
The brilliant reflections of this stone are enough to attract the attention of jewelers and consumers alike, convincing them that they have something special to offer. Even in the form of tiny dots, their intensity is comparable to the sparkle of a sunbeam, from which comes one of its many names. Although classified as a stone, it does not exist in nature in this form, but is made from melted quartz and other chemical components depending on the color. For the creation of the golden variation, copper salts are added. As the mixture cools, the copper produces sparkling particles, each of which is a microscopic copper crystal. For other types, different coloring agents are used, such as chromium oxide for green, cobalt compounds for blue, and manganese for purple. Folklore has it that the recipe for the stone was created accidentally by alchemists, while trying to produce gold, or by monks practicing alchemy. This explains some of its trade names: monk’s stone, monk’s gold, or goldstone, as well as its Italian name "aventurine" from the root avventura, meaning luck or chance. The term "aventurine" was later applied in geology to minerals that resemble this stone.
Metaphysical properties of GOLDSTONE - The goldstone, with its reflecting surface, can be used as a protective stone. Therefore it is suitable for creating amulets. One of Its cultural associations is with alchemy, followed by the belief that it can sustain personal transformation. Due to its derivation from the Italian word "aventura", "luck, chance, risk", the stone is associated with good fortune, luck, and games of chance. It is also linked with the ability to guess and to predict the future. It enhances qualities such as ambition, confidence and risk assessment. It is also known as a symbol of safe travel, good planning, and the enjoyment of life. Because of its copper content, this gem shares the metaphysical properties of metal: attracting abundance, harmonizing relationships, and creativity.
