Amazonite is an Blue lagoon gemstone, that, bespite its name, is not from the Amazon river. Some of it comes from near Pike's Peak in Colorado.
Amazonite is a gem variety of microcline feldspar and is usually polished as a cabochon. It displays a schiller of light which is caused by inclusions. Schiller is a lustrous reflection from planes in a mineral grain and is similar to what is more commonly known as iridescence. The schiller is caused by a feature of the stone's crystal structure. Orthoclase feldspar and albite are present in close association, arranged in layers. This causes an interference effect of light.
Amazonite enhances creative expression, aligns astral bodies, unity with life. Improves self worth. Amazonite is considered a soothing stone that offers confidence. It is called the "hope stone" because it inspires confidence and hope. One source says it is useful to activate lazy teenagers.
Our Amazonite is price about $0.40/ct to $0.80/ct, compared to GS at $5/ct.
