Solar Stone Double Butterfly Pendant from China
Sun stone
Sun stone is a striking mineral from the feldspar group, known for its warm luster and brilliance, often with an orange to reddish colour. The characteristic shimmering effect, also called aventurescence, is caused by inclusions of haematite or goethite. This optical property gives sunstone a sparkling appearance reminiscent of sunlight, from which the mineral gets its name.
Sunstone is found in India, Norway, the United States and Canada, among other places. It usually belongs to the plagioclase or orthoclase feldspars, with the chemical composition (Na,Ca)(Si,Al)₄O₈. Sunstone occurs in igneous rocks such as pegmatites or volcanic rocks. Its hardness is between 6 and 6.5 on the Mohs scale.

Double-Binder Pendants
The stone cut into double-cylinder is fixed in a silver- or gold-coloured holder with eye. The double-inder has a length of about 3.2 cm, measured without the eye. These pendants are available in various stone types and are supplied individually. Due to the use of natural stone, colour, markings and finish may vary slightly from one pendant to another.
