What is an Amazonite Stone?
Amazonite is a fine stone, formerly also known as a semi-precious stone. It is a variety of microcline feldspar with a hardness ranging from 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale. Its name is derived from the Amazon River, where it is said to have been discovered. This semi-precious stone in green, blue-green, translucent to opaque color has a shimmering appearance and is sensitive to pressure. The largest mines are found in Brazil, Russia, and the United States (Colorado). If you want to learn more about its history and its virtues, check out our article on Amazonite stone.
