Stone Beads — Amazonite, Aventurine, Green Stones

Amazonite - a soft green or blue green stone is realitively new to the stone bead world. It's soft colour is very attactive. However, it is not a strong stone and can scratch or break if abused. While is named for the Amazon River, it actually comes from deposits in Russia and Colorado.

Aventurine is another member of the quartz family of stones, it can be green or orange/brown.

We try to choose consistent stock, but the nature of natural stones is that there will be inconsistency between strands and between individual beads.

Stone Beads - 10 mm Round - Golden Malachite (1)
This was very clearly labeled "Golden Malachite" - but a quick google reveals absolutely nothing with that name. I would hazard the opinion that this is more like "Bronze Infused Purple Turquoise" in nature - it appears to be a composite stone with metallic inclusion and is primarily man-made. This does not detract from these being very handsome and interesting stone beads. 10mm By the each.
