Goldstone Gemstone Beads

Goldstone is a type of glittering glass made in a low-oxygen reducing atmosphere. An intriguing material, Goldstone is created through a process that involves the melting of glass with copper or copper salts, and it's this unique process that imparts the stone's signature sparkly, metallic luster. This glassy bead isn't a naturally occurring stone but an engineered one that beautifully mimics the aesthetics of natural minerals.

Facts: Goldstone has a fascinating history that dates back to the European Renaissance. Legend has it that it was accidentally discovered by Venetian monks while attempting to forge alchemical gold, hence its name. This historic background endows Goldstone with an extra layer of intrigue for anyone enchanted by the mysteries of old-world alchemy.

Metaphysical / Holistic: The metaphysical properties attributed to Goldstone make it a popular choice among healing and art circles. It's believed to generate positive energy, enhancing courage and confidence, making it ideal not just for designing stunning jewelry but also for offering a meaningful, energetic touch to every piece.
