This beautiful bracelet measures about 2 1/4-inch diameter, but expands to fit all but the largest wrist. Crafted from faceted opalite moonstone beads measuring 12mm x 8mm each.Moonstone's magical play of light brings a romantic, sensuous and seductive feeling. Moonstone is translucent, and softens the light shining through it to give a pearly moon-like glow appearing different whenever the stone changes position. Years ago it was thought to be brought about by the moon's phases.This shimmering effect is caused by light being refracted inside the stone and then scattered.
Moonstone comes in colorless, white, grey, and subtle yellow, but always has a blue or white sheen. Rainbow moonstone is colorless with a blue sheen and a rainbow-like array of colors.
Moonstone folklore
Mystery surrounds moonstone. In India it's considered sacred to lovers, and is also known as a "dream stone" bringing beautiful dreams. In Arab countries women sometimes wear moonstone as a symbol of fertility. It was also believed to be especially protective to seafarers, who have used it since ancient times. During full-moon, moonstone is very powerful for reconciling love - and as the moon decreases, is said to allow one to foretell the future.
