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.
