Moonstone Mini Stud Earrings

Moonstone generally comes in white with a characteristic blue flash, but it is also found in peach, grey, yellow, and most recently, black. It is in the feldspar group and is related to labradorite in its flash that shows up when the stone is viewed from different angles. In Moonstone, however, this phenomena is called adularescence, an effect caused by light diffracting through alternating layers of orthoclast and albite within the stone.

In ancient Rome, it was believed that the pearly sheen of the Moonstone was a shard of solid moonlight. It was said that those who glanced into the stone could see the Goddess Diana and that this pearly talisman would bring love and fortune to the wearer.

Moonstone is synonymous with the divine feminine with its nurturing, healing wisdom and compassionate energy.

Photography

Although we always strive to provide clear, accurate images of our crystals and other products, we photograph under professional lighting, which is meant to mimic sunlight. If you get your crystal and think it looks a little different under low or artificial light, try checking it out again in sunlight!

Our crystals are one-of-a-kind art, created by nature.

No two pieces are the same, and there is no such thing as "perfection" in nature.

When it comes to our hand-carved items, remember that artists work with and around imperfections, druzy pockets, and other natural variations to bring each carving out of a piece of natural stone.

We consider these imperfections to be one of the most wonderful parts of crystal collecting, and we invite you to embrace each carving's uniqueness!

We will always try to portray each piece honestly, so be sure to look closely at our images and videos to ensure you know what to expect.
