Moonstone
.
From colorless to white to yellow, moonstone displays a floating blue, white or rainbow shimmering glow.
The glowing sheen actually results from interplay of light with layers of tiny albite crystals known as “adularescence.”
The rage in Europe, moonstone is growing in popularity in American and is fast becoming the most popular gem in the feldspar family.
Hindus considered moonstone sacred and ancient Romans believed the inner glow waxed and waned according to the cycles of the moon.
The finest moonstone comes from Myanmar and Sri Lanka.
