The refreshing color and sheen of gorgeous Amazonite may be a little bit reminiscent of the Amazon jungle, but don't be fooled by the vibrant and verdant blue-greens of these stones.
Amazonite is also known as the "Amazon stone," because it was thought to have been discovered at the Amazon River Basin in Brazil. However, there are no deposits found there and instead Amazonite is present in other parts of Brazil, Colorado and Virginia in the United States, Australia and Madagascar.
Amazonite stone is also referred to as "Colorado Jade" or "Pikes Peak Jade" because of its resemblance to Jade. Amazonite is usually pale green, but can sometimes be blue-green, turquoise, or yellow-green and can also have white streaks.
Amazonite is a mostly opaque stone textured with pale milky-white cloudiness or streaking ranging from light green to greenish blue to deep green/blue. Amazonite's soft and attractive color closely resembles nephrite and jadeite. Amazonite's appearance is very distinctive with its grid-like, mottled, green and white pattern. The color of amazonite is due to the presence of lead within the stone and color variation may exist within a single stone.
Amazonite is believed to have many metaphysical powers. Amazonite stones are also thought to have tremendous healing abilities. Similar to jade, Amazonite is associated with money, luck and overall success. It's known as the "gambler's stone," encouraging good luck and fortune.
Amazonite is said to have a soothing effect on the nervous system. Since the nervous system controls our emotions a great deal, this stone is said to soothe tense and aggravated situations and to enhance love. Since this stone is associated with the throat and heart, it is best when worn as a necklace near these areas. Amazonite is said to bestow truth, honor and integrity to its wearer.
Amazonite is also used to treat fatigue, trauma or anything else that may take energy away from a person. Amazonite is said to help problems with the thyroid glands and also aids in treating alcoholism. It has a gentle healing quality that is useful to nearly everyone in a general manner
Amazonite is sensitive to chemicals, abrasives, heat, acids and ammonia. Never use a steamer, hot water or ultrasonic cleaners with this gemstone. Use mild soap and room temperature tap water with a soft cloth to retain the luster of the gemstone.
