{"product_id":"green-aventurine-hearts-25x10mm","title":"Green Aventurine Heart - 0.75-1.0 inch","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Green Aventurine Heart is a small, deeply saturated green stone with a glittering shimmer that shifts as the piece turns in the light. That sparkle sits within the stone rather than on it, catching at certain angles and disappearing at others. Polished to a smooth, rounded finish, the Heart is genuinely pocket-sized, closing easily inside a fist and sitting flat enough to tuck into a card, a pouch, or a coat pocket. Pieces are supplied individually from a mixed batch, so the depth of green and the strength of the shimmer vary from Heart to Heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen Aventurine carries one of the most persistent reputations in the crystal trade as a stone of manifestation and abundance, and it is commonly kept close during anything that feels like a gamble, from interviews to first days. A secondary association with balance and harmony softens that outlook, and Green Aventurine is often described as encouraging a settled kind of optimism rather than pushing for a result. At this size the Heart works as a small token to give away, and it is one of the most common introductions anyone has to crystals at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Focus: Manifestation \u0026amp; Abundance\u003cbr\u003eSecondary Focus: Balance \u0026amp; Harmony\u003cbr\u003eChakra Association: Heart\u003cbr\u003eZodiac Sign: Aries, Leo\u003cbr\u003eChinese Zodiac: Tiger, Dragon\u003cbr\u003eRuling Planet: Mercury\u003cbr\u003eElements: Earth, Air\u003cbr\u003eMohs Hardness: 7\u003cbr\u003eStone Family: Tectosilicate\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Green Aventurine\u003cbr\u003eForm: Heart\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Size: 20-25 mm (0.8-1 inch)\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Weight: 8-10 g per piece\u003cbr\u003eListing: Sold by Single Unit\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGreen Aventurine is a quartz, silicon dioxide, at Mohs 7 in the trigonal system. The green body colour and the metallic glitter both trace to inclusions of fuchsite mica; light reflecting off flat, parallel mica platelets produces the shimmer, an optical effect known as aventurescence and the source of the stone's name, taken from the Italian a ventura, meaning by chance, after the accidental discovery of aventurine glass. The material is natural and requires no treatment. Green Aventurine is frequently mistaken for jade in the retail market, but it is a quartz-family stone rather than a jade, and the characteristic sparkle is the clearest way to tell them apart, since jade shows no aventurescence. The stone was used extensively in ancient Chinese and Tibetan carving traditions. Commercial sources include Brazil, India, Russia, Tanzania, and China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
