{"product_id":"worry-stones-aventurine-green-dz-1-5-1-75","title":"Green Aventurine Worry Stone - 1.5 inch","description":"\u003cp\u003eGreen Aventurine Worry Stone cut to an oval with a thumb hollow across one face. The colour is a deep even green, more uniform than most green stones at this price, and turned into direct light the surface throws a fine scattered glitter from flat mica platelets sitting just below the polish. The stone is cool and dense, and the finish is high without being mirror-bright.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGreen Aventurine is traditionally the stone of opportunity and steady good fortune, and it is among the most widely bought crystals anywhere, which says something about how the association travels. It is commonly carried daily, kept in a purse or a drawer, or chosen by people who want something to occupy the hands through restless moments. The sparkle is the practical way to tell aventurine from the jade it is often mistaken for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPrimary Focus: Manifestation \u0026amp; Abundance\u003cbr\u003e\nSecondary Focus: Balance \u0026amp; Harmony\u003cbr\u003e\nChakra Association: Heart\u003cbr\u003e\nZodiac Sign: Aries, Leo\u003cbr\u003e\nChinese Zodiac: Tiger, Dragon\u003cbr\u003e\nRuling Planet: Mercury\u003cbr\u003e\nElements: Earth, Air\u003cbr\u003e\nMohs Hardness: 7\u003cbr\u003e\nStone Family: Tectosilicate\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Green Aventurine\u003cbr\u003e\nForm: Worry Stone\u003cbr\u003e\nFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Size: 35-40 mm (1.4-1.6 inches)\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Weight: 11-21 g\u003cbr\u003e\nListing: Single unit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nGreen Aventurine belongs to the quartz family, silicon dioxide crystallising in the trigonal system at Mohs 7, and its green comes from inclusions of fuchsite, a chromium-bearing mica, dispersed through the quartz. Those same inclusions produce the stone's defining glitter, an effect called aventurescence, caused by light reflecting off flat parallel mica platelets rather than off the surface. The name runs backwards from the glass: it comes from the Italian a ventura, meaning by chance, after the accidental discovery of aventurine glass, and the mineral was subsequently named for its resemblance to the manufactured material. Aventurine is frequently mistaken for jade, and the sparkle is the practical distinction, since jade has none. It was worked extensively in ancient Chinese and Tibetan carving traditions. Commercial material comes from Brazil, India, Russia, Tanzania and China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
