Golden orange, lit from inside by tiny copper flecks that catch the light every time you move: that's sunstone. It warms up your skin tone and adds a bit of sunshine to whatever you're wearing, and our sunstone jewelry is all about that happy sparkle.
Sunstone and its sparkle
Genuine sunstone is a feldspar scattered with fine metallic inclusions. They give it its glitter, known as aventurescence, in shades from orange to coppery red. Watch out for "goldstone": it's sparkly glass, often passed off as sunstone, and not a natural stone at all. Go for the real thing. Its shimmer is softer and less even, and that's exactly what makes it special.
Sunstone meaning
As the name suggests, sunstone is a stone of joy and get-up-and-go, a little ray of sun to carry with you on gray days. It's also linked to confidence and inner warmth. It belongs to the solar plexus chakra, and it's the one to reach for when you want to feel lighter.
Sunstone bracelets, necklaces and rings
On the wrist, sunstone gives an outfit a golden glow. On a necklace or a ring, it brings warmth and a playful note. Keep the sunny mood going with our citrine bracelets, our Vitality collection and our lucky charms.
Caring for sunstone
Feldspar is only moderately hard, so it can chip and scratch. Store your sunstone pieces separately and keep them away from harsh products. A soft cloth and a little clean water are all they need.
