Sunstone is a variety of feldspar known for its warm, glittery sparkle, called aventurescence, caused by tiny plate like inclusions of copper or hematite scattered throughout the crystal. It forms within igneous rock, with some of the finest material coming from Oregon in the United States and parts of India, where light reflecting off these inclusions creates its signature golden shimmer.
Sunstone is good for:
Boosting confidence and joy
Encouraging leadership and independence
Supporting motivation
Inviting warmth and optimism
Easing self doubt
Pairs well with: Citrine and Carnelian, for a bright, energising combination.
Every crystal is one of a kind. As a natural formation, your sunstone may include unique inclusions, colour variations, or markings. These aren't flaws. They're what make each piece truly one of a kind.
