Moonstone Jewelry and Crystals

Strength, Hope, Clarity

Moonstone is the most valuable variety of the feldspar group. Although the body color varies, most Moonstones have adularescence— a phenomenon unique to Moonstone where the stone projects a floating bluish glow when under a light source. This is caused by light refracting off of different layers within the stone. Some also show chatoyancy, also known as opalescence or the “cat’s eye” effect, where a band of light extends along the stone’s surface. Moonstone is believed to calm and to provide relief from emotional stress. It is also believed to provide protection and is associated with love.
