Goldstone Double Butterfly Pendant from China
Goldstone
Goldstone is not a natural mineral, but a synthetic glassy material with a distinctive shimmer caused by trapped copper particles. The stone usually has a warm brownish-red to golden brown colour, although blue and green varieties also exist. Due to its sparkling appearance, goldstone is often used in jewellery and decorative objects.
Goldstone was probably first manufactured in Italy in the 17th century, possibly by glassmakers in Venice. Although an artificial product, it is often offered alongside natural stones in the mineral trade because of its attractive appearance. Its hardness is around 5.5 to 6 on the Mohs scale, similar to ordinary glass.

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.
