Sun Stone Pendant/Sun Gemstone Reddish Locket (सूर्य स्टोन लॉकेट): Sun stone is a gem-quality member of the feldspar group of minerals. It is famed for its aventurescence, often referred to as ‘schiller’. Sun stone may also be traded as ‘aventurine feldspar’, but now a days, the term ‘aventurine’ is primarily used only in reference to the green quartz known as ‘aventurine’. Not all sun stone exhibits strong aventurescence or schiller. The intensity of the optical phenomenon depends upon the size of inclusions, which are typically composed of hematite or goethite. Smaller inclusions tend to exhibit more sheen, while larger inclusions generally appear as glittery, spangled metallic reflections.

Sun Stone Pendant is typically orange to reddish in colour and its spangled appearance is reminiscent of the sun, hence its name ‘sun stone’. There are actually a few different varieties of sun stone available today. Sun stone can be varieties of plagioclase (oligoclase sunstone) feldspar or potassium feldspar (orthoclase sun stone). Oligoclase sun stone is more common than orthoclase sun stone. Essentially, any form of aventurescent feldspar can be marketed as ‘aventurine feldspar’. Sun Stone Pendant is not so abundant. The most famous localities are in Norway, where a massive deposit was found embedded in quartz.

There is quite a lot of this mineral in the region of Lake Baikal in Siberia, and also at several locations in USA, Canada, Madagascar and India. This gem belongs to the feldspar family from the class named plagioclase. This classification means that there are two types of feldspar within – albite, which is rich in sodium, Na and anorite, which is rich in calcium, Ca. Some people call this stone Aventurine Feldspar and other names can be Goldstone or Sun stone.
