About this product
Turn it slowly in your palm by lamplight, and somewhere under the milky surface a small blue flame wakes, flares and slips away. Each tumble in this small batch shows it a little differently; at the right angle, the blue looks almost lit from within.
That flash is adularescence, and it gives rainbow moonstone its name. This lot is cut from feldspar mined in Rajasthan, India, the source of most rainbow moonstone sold today. Despite the name, it belongs to the same mineral family as labradorite rather than to the true adularia moonstone of Sri Lanka, and its blue sheen is a close cousin of labradorescence rather than the softer white glow of classic moonstone.
Old European tradition ties moonstone to the moon's own cycle, carried through its waxing and waning as a companion to whatever was also changing in a life. Travelers once kept it for safe roads and safe returns, and by long custom it is still given as a parting gift to someone setting out on a new chapter.
Details
- Stone: rainbow moonstone, a feldspar, tumbled

How to use
Keep one on a windowsill through a full lunar cycle and watch how its light changes, or carry it loose in a pocket on a night when the moon is hard to see.
A gentle stone, best met at an angle.
