Collection: Amazonite

Amazonite, a green variety of microcline feldspar, is known for its intriguing color that ranges from bright verdigris green to a bluish green. This gemstone's alluring aesthetic appeal and relative hardness make it an ideal component for a variety of decorative items, including jewelry and sculptures. It is often found in areas with high volcanic activity and is primarily sourced from locations such as Colorado, Virginia, and Madagascar. Amazonite's unique, vibrant color is attributed to the presence of lead within its composition. Despite its name suggesting a connection to the Amazon River, there are no confirmed Amazonite deposits in that area.
