{"product_id":"blue-moonstone-raw-stone","title":"Blue Moonstone Raw Stone","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis raw blue moonstone shows the classic moonstone glow: a soft blue shimmer that floats across milky white and clear stone as you turn it in the light. The pieces are unpolished, with natural ridges and flat cleavage faces that make the flash look even more vivid. They feel cool and smooth in places and textured in others, perfect for collectors, crafters and anyone who loves the light of the moon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural blue moonstone, a feldspar with blue adularescence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptions:\u003c\/strong\u003e One piece about 20-50mm, or an 80-100g bag of pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raw, unpolished rough stones, from our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/raw\"\u003eraw crystals\u003c\/a\u003e collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Milky white to clear with blue flash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you receive:\u003c\/strong\u003e One stone or one bag, depending on the option you choose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Random Pick: chosen from current stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural variation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flash strength, clarity and shape vary with every piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChakra Connection\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn crystal tradition, moonstone is connected to the Sacral Chakra, the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/third-eye-chakra-crystals\"\u003eThird Eye Chakra\u003c\/a\u003e and the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/crown-chakra-crystals\"\u003eCrown Chakra\u003c\/a\u003e, and it has long been tied to the moon, cycles and intuition.

These are natural moonstone pieces. The blue shimmer, called adularescence, comes from light scattering between thin layers inside the feldspar. It is not a coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow big are the pieces?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe single piece option is about 20-50mm long, as shown on the sizing photo. The 80-100g bag contains several pieces of mixed sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill every piece flash blue?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost pieces show blue flash at the right angle, but strength varies.

Moonstone is a classic gift for new beginnings, birthdays in June and anyone who loves the moon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Blue Moonstone?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoonstone is a member of the feldspar family. Its moonlike glow, called adularescence, appears when light bounces between microscopic layers of two different feldspars inside the stone. Blue moonstone shows a cool blue sheen on a white or clear body and is often sold as rainbow moonstone when other colors appear. It is sometimes confused with \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/labradorite-crystals\"\u003elabradorite\u003c\/a\u003e, which is darker, and with opalite, a man-made glass that glows evenly rather than flashing.
