Beginners Guide to Getting Stoned... I mean Stones! (Copper Goldstone)

All that glitters is not gold... but that doesn't mean it isn’t pretty!

Copper Goldstone Dragon Pendant

   Such is the case with Copper Goldstone. A man-made glass, this gem has been used to create beautiful jewelry since the 12th or 13th century. Although the earliest evidence of its existence is an ancient amulet from Iran dating back to that time, the modern production of this gem is credited to the Miotti family in the 17th century when they were granted an exclusive license to manufacture it in Venice.

Sun Pendant

   It is easy to see why they sought the license. Although it is not as hard as natural gemstones like diamonds, sapphires, or rubies (it has a Mohs hardness of 5.5 to 6.5), its beautiful copper coloring and eye-catching gold flecks make it a fantastic choice for jewelry and other decorative items.

   While it is undeniably sparkly, Copper Goldstone is more than just a pretty gem. It symbolizes inspiration, ingenuity, and the power of creativity and self-belief. Known as the stone of ambition, it is thought to assist in attaining goals. From a healing perspective, it is believed to revitalize the mind and body, encourage healthy circulation, and support tissue regeneration due to the energy-conducting properties of copper. Additionally, it is said to reduce tension, energize the wearer, and promote a positive attitude.

Beginners Guide to Getting Stoned... I mean Stones! (Blue Goldstone)

OOOHHH, what are these pretty, shiny objects?

Blue Goldstone Tumbled

Are they from outer space? Or do they come from the deepest recesses of the Earth?

The correct answer is-neither!

Mushroom Pendant

   This beautiful stone is actually a man-made material, not a naturally occurring gemstone. A combination of silica, cobalt, and other metal oxides, it is created in a low-oxygen oven. The mixture is heated to over 2000°, then slowly cooled to form tiny glittering crystals. With a hardness of 5.5 - 6 on the Mohs scale, it's relatively durable and can withstand everyday wear and tear, making it the perfect stone to use in jewelry. Because of this, artisans have been using this crystal to create beautiful pieces for centuries, and who can blame them? With dark blue coloring originating from the cobalt used and its glittering specks, Blue Goldstone an eye-catching crystal!

But this isn't just another pretty stone.

Oval Pendant

   Despite its artificial origins, Blue Goldstone's energetic qualities make it a highly valued crystal. Among the metaphysical properties attributed to Blue Goldstone are confidence, ambition, and emotional healing as well as the ability to boost self-expression. It is believed to promote motivation, clear communication and personal authenticity, making it a stone often used by those seeking to manifest their goals while also acting as a protective shield against negative energies. It is especially valued by empaths due to its ability to soothe hypersensitivity and promote emotional balance. In crystal healing, Blue Goldstone is associated with the Throat Chakra, encouraging acceptance of who we are to express authenticity and no longer deny our truth. Moreover, it is believed to promote vitality.

   Whether you are looking for the spiritual properties the gemstone has to offer or are merely attracted to its sparkling beauty, Blue Goldstone makes a wonderful addition to any collection.
