Description
Amazonite makes your married life happier.
Stone's
names: Amazonite, Amazonstone.
Color: Amazonite varies in color from yellow-green to
blue-green and may also exhibit fine white streaks.
Description: KAlSi3O8
Amazonite is a gemstone variety of green microcline, a feldspar mineral. It is
usually opaque and therefore is cut en cabochon (with a rounded and convex
polished surface).
The name's origin: Although its name is derived
from the Amazon River, no deposits have been found
there.
Care and treatment: As with all gemstones, care
should be taken to protect amazonite from scratches and sharp blows. Store
amazonites in separate boxes.
From the stone history: Articles made of amazonite
were found in Ancient Egypt.
The Pikes Peak district of Colorado, U.S.,
became the most important source of amazonite after 1876. When samples were
unveiled at the Centennial Exhibition, their impressive purity and size
eventually forced competing Russian mineral dealers out of business.
Shopping guide: Note that amazonite is frequently
confused with jade .
Healing ability: Amazonite makes your skin better.
Releases fear and anxiety.
Mystical power: Amazonite makes your married life
happier.
Deposits: Amazonite has been mined in Minas Gerais (Brazil),
Colorado (U.S.), Ontario and Quebec
(Canada),
Baveno (Italy)
and the Ural Mountains of Russia.
