{"product_id":"blue-goldstone-worry-stones-1-2kg-1lbs","title":"Blue Goldstone Worry Stone - 1.75 inch","description":"\u003cp\u003eBlue Goldstone Worry Stone cut to a smooth oval with a thumb hollow across one face. The body is a deep midnight blue, dark enough to read almost black in low light, and through it runs a dense field of fine copper-gold sparkle that only fully appears when the stone is turned toward a direct source. The surface is glass-smooth in a way no natural stone quite matches, and the sparkle density varies between pieces according to the production batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlue Goldstone is used for intuition and for calm, and its appeal is largely visual: the night-sky effect is the reason most people pick it up. It is commonly carried in a pocket, kept where it will catch lamplight, or given to someone who wants something striking without the cost of a fine natural stone. It is also a frequent choice for people who like the object but are indifferent to the metaphysical framing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Focus: Intuition \u0026amp; Spiritual Awareness\u003cbr\u003eSecondary Focus: Calm \u0026amp; Stress Relief\u003cbr\u003eChakra Association: Third Eye, Throat\u003cbr\u003eZodiac Sign: Sagittarius, Aquarius\u003cbr\u003eRuling Planet: Neptune\u003cbr\u003eElements: Air, Water\u003cbr\u003eMohs Hardness: 5.5-6\u003cbr\u003eStone Family: Man-Made\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Blue Goldstone\u003cbr\u003eForm: Worry Stone\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Size: 45 mm (1.8 inches)\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Weight: 29-33 g\u003cbr\u003eListing: Single unit\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBlue Goldstone is a man-made glass rather than a naturally occurring mineral, silica glass at Mohs 5.5 to 6 in which cobalt oxide produces the deep blue colour and suspended copper crystal platelets produce the metallic sparkle. That sparkle effect, called aventurescence, is the same optical phenomenon seen in natural aventurine, but here it is engineered rather than geological. The process dates to seventeenth century Venetian glassmaking, where tradition holds it was discovered accidentally by the Miotti family of glassmakers, though that origin story may be apocryphal. Production began in Murano and has since moved primarily to China. This piece is man-made and is disclosed as such.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach piece is selected for its quality, beauty, and visual consistency.
