MOONSTONE
Moonstone is a pearly white stone that can range from colorless to brown and everything in between. It generally has a silky luster with a blue or white sheen and ranges from transparent to translucent, resembling moonshine. The cause of its luminescence is due to the internal structure of the stone, which causes light rays to be refracted and scatter. They are found in Sri Lanka, India, Mexico, Europe, and Madagascar.
