Among the gems, there is a feldspar family, among which the outstanding representatives are sunlight gems and moonlight gems. Sunshine stone is named after feldspar, which contains many small minerals, arranged neatly and bright red in color. When these fragments are illuminated by light, they will reflect thousands of shining bright spots, just like the sun's rays. Moonstone is a gem that shines like the moon. It is as beautiful as the autumn moon. Very elegant. High-quality people are milky white, translucent with light blue halo, like hazy moonlight, so they are called moonstone. Moonstone was designated as the birthstone of June in the United States, symbolizing health, wealth and longevity.
The moonstone has a refractive index of 1.52%, a hardness of 6, a birefringence of 0.07, and a dispersion of 0. 12. It scatters incident light, and when the scattered light is concentrated, a hazy halo appears.
Moonstone is somewhat similar to quartz cat's eye, except that when the gem rotates, the quartz cat's eye moves evenly in the bright linear light band, while moonstone moves in the hazy moonlight band.
Features-the surface is a bit like fog glass, delicate and soft, with strong light transmission. Due to the light reflection of the internal structure, albite in the interlayer emits attractive colored light.
Mysterious and romantic luster, full of aura like moonlight. Indians regard moonstone as sacred stone, while ancient Greece and Rome firmly believe that moonstone is full of powerful power at full moon. It is said that making the moonstone into a ring with platinum can maximize its energy.
