Goldstone

Goldstone is a glittering glass made by hand, not mined from the earth, filled with tiny metallic crystals that catch the light like scattered stars.

The story of goldstone

Goldstone was born in the glass workshops of 17th-century Venice, where legend says copper slipped into molten glass by chance. Italians still call it avventurina, from “a ventura”: by chance. To make it, metal-laced glass is sealed in a furnace and cooled for days while millions of tiny crystals grow inside. Known as monk’s gold and stellaria, it comes in warm copper, midnight blue and deep green.
