Aventurine Beads ~ Faceted

Aventurine Faceted Beads 7mm - 9mm  4 - 6 mm D  Hardness 6.5-7

I have always seen Averturine in a deep shade of green, so I was pleasently surprized to find these faceted gems in a collection of mixed shades from rust to pale green in one lot. These lovely natural  beads that just glitter.  As you can see from the photo there is a passel of them!

Aventurine is found in the Quartz family and is often called the “Stone of Opportunity” because it’s believed to attract luck, prosperity, and new beginnings. I like that!
