The process was developed in Venice, Italy, likely in the 17th century, and the original formula was reportedly a closely guarded secret of Venetian glassmakers. The name Goldstone comes from the Italian vetro avventurina, meaning glass of chance or adventure, referring to the accidental discovery of the sparkling effect. Blue Goldstone is made by adding cobalt or other metallic compounds to the glass melt, which creates the deep blue color and the characteristic sparkle. Despite being man-made, it has been embraced by the crystal and metaphysical community for its uplifting, star-like energy and its association with ambition, confidence, and the reminder that we are made of the same stuff as stars.
