Gemstone Beads, Aventurine, Natural, Round, 10mm
Gemstone Beads, Aventurine, Natural, Round, 10mm
This quartz-based gemstone is known for its bright inclusions and glistening or shimmering effect (aventurescence). This effect comes from the presence of chrome-bearing fuchsite, which adds a silvery green or silvery blue sheen to the stone. Red, orange and brown types of Aventurine are created when hematite or goethite is present instead of fuchsite.
Aventurine gets its name from the Italian word "avventura"--by chance, risk or luck. Its name is tied to the creation of goldstone, and the name for the manmade material was transferred to the natural material once the gemstone was identified.
This stone is believed to be a positive stone of prosperity, diffusing negative emotions, reinforcing leadership, promoting compassion and encouraging perseverance. It is a stone used to promote open-mindedness and the ability to see alternatives and possibilities, which is why it is considered a lucky stone for gamblers!
Specific colors of Aventurine are thought to have additional properties:
Blue: Promotes mental healing.
Green: Eases mental and emotional trauma, dissolving negative thought and bringing calm.
Red: Boosts creativity, vitality and sensuality.
Green is the most common hue for this stone, which offers a range of design options. Mix with crystal beads or cultured freshwater pearls for a classic look, with Czech pressed glass for something fresh and springtime.
Aventurine can fade with prolonged exposure to the sun, so store gems in a dark place. It also reacts to extreme temperatures, so keep this gemstone off the dash of your car in summer or in winter. Be sure to clean this gemstone in warm soapy water and a soft cloth or brush. This gemstone's hardness makes it durable, but it can be sheared, so keep it separate from other gemstones. Keep away from household chemicals.
