Scientific Facts

Moonstone is composed of Orthoclase and Albite, two species from the Feldspar group. Its coloration reaches from colorless, white, through shades of yellow, gray, green, pink, reddish, orange, and brown. It can be anywhere from opaque to clear and has a vitreous luster which can be colorless or include blue hues.

Strawberry Quartz is a pink to red quartz or quartzite that receive their color from eye-visible mineral inclusions.
The inclusions can be small platelets of hematite (same as fire quartz), flakes of lepidolite, flakes of alurgite (a orangy red muscovite), crystals of piemontite, or other minerals that are pink to red in color. The visible inclusions contribute to the name of strawberry quartz because their appearance can be similar to strawberry seeds.

Moonstone represents calm emotions, inner clarity, cyclical change, and a connection to the feminine. It is a symbol of light and hope and also encourages us to embrace new beginnings. It is closely linked to themes of femininity such as fertility, balance, softness, and intuition.

Strawberry Quartz is said to be the stone of joy and happiness, attracting positive energy wherever it is used. It is also said to be a stone of love, both romantic and platonic.
