These 8mm round amazonite beads bring the soft blue-green calm of genuine feldspar gemstone to your work — a semi-precious stone prized for its cool, understated color that reads as quietly confident rather than loud.

Amazonite's natural coloring runs in those muted, watery blue-greens with subtle variation from bead to bead, giving finished pieces an organic, unhurried look that sits beautifully in the whites and pastels family.

What to make with them

Their 8mm round shape strings up cleanly for single-strand necklaces and stacking bracelets where the stone can speak for itself; they're also a strong choice for knotted designs and mixed-gemstone pieces where you want a visual rest between more saturated stones.

Description

Amazonite's lustrously vibrant blue-green colors are believed to be caused by the presence of iron and or lead within the mineral. Ironically named after the Amazon River, no Amazonite has ever been found in the Amazon region. Most of the world's Amazonite can be found in the USA, Russia, Africa and Australia.
Russian Amazonite exhibits pronounced grey or white striations often with chatoyant (shimmering) properties adding depth and interest to this gorgeous blue-green stone.
