A great new find from Tanzania: various Feldspars with Hematite inclusions!
Under the trade name Arusha Sunstone this new material is on the market.
The faceted spheres of sunstone are 4mm in size; the entire sunstone strand has a length of approx. 40cm.
Sunstone (Aventurine Feldspar) is significant in stone healing to support an optimistic, positive attitude towards life. In addition, the mineral can cause the view to focus more on their own abilities and the sunny side of life.
The mineralogical name for Sunstone is Aventurine (orange) Feldspar; the red-orange color and sparkle are caused by very small inclusions of Hematite and other iron oxides. A name for sunstone rarely used nowadays is heliolite or heliotite. This particular variety is also called confetti sunstone.
Hello! My name is Marco Schreier and I am the founder of the Mineralienhandlung GmbH of the same name. Creativity and stones have been a topic for me since I was a child, and they first shaped my free time and then my entire professional life.
As a child, this began playfully with collecting and crafting with stones I had found myself and with the first minerals that my grandfather brought me from the Alps. Later, a fascination for processing, sawing, grinding, designing and artistic work with gemstones emerged.
