Multi Moonstone 7mm Faceted Heart (Calibrated)

Color in the body, moonlight moving under the surface.

Hold a strand up and tilt it. The peach beads warm from apricot to cream, the gray ones shift from smoke to silver, and a soft light seems to travel just under each polished face rather than sit on top of it. Chocolate and golden shine hold their color in the body, with the sheen crossing over the top of it. People reach for these because the glow moves when the wearer moves. Next to plain silver, the gray looks like weather.

In Hindu mythology, moonstone is said to be made of solidified moonbeams, and many other cultures have tied the stone to moonlight for the same plain reason: the sheen looks like a full moon behind thin high cloud. Old legends hold that it brings good luck to the person carrying it. One belief said you could see what was coming if you held a moonstone in your mouth during a full moon. In crystal tradition it is kept as the stone of the moon and of calm, something to wear when you want a quieter mood. Moonstone is a birthstone for June, alongside pearl and alexandrite.
