*Necklace comes with the Black cord chain.  I have a separate link if you would like to upgrade to the Sterling Silver Plated Chain options.  Sterling silver comes in two styles and 2 different lengths, for your convenience. If upgrading to Sterling Silver, you will get the silver chain, instead of the Black cord chain.

Ambition, Positivity

Though not a stone--or gold!--this manufactured "gemstone material" is known by many names: "aventurine glass," stellaria, gold star glass, monkstone or monk's gold. The final two names refer to the urban legend that goldstone was created accidentally by Italian monks in the 1600s. There are earlier samples, however, including a smooth amulet from Iran that dates to the 1100s to 1200s. The earliest written reference to the material we call goldstone, however, is Vincenzo Miotti of Venice being granted exclusive license by the Venetian head of state (the Doge) to create this sparkling opaque glass. It has been linked to the medieval art of alchemy almost from its creation. A deep red variation--called haematinum or purpurin--may have been made by the Romans, with the recipe getting lost during the Dark Ages.

Modern goldstone can be created either with copper flecks or with other metallic compounds such as cobalt, manganese or chromium oxide. These are used in goldstones made using colors (respectively) such as purple, blue and green.

Called the stone of ambition, goldstone is thought to assist in attaining goals. Some consider goldstone to be a symbol of ingenuity, ambition, and drive. It believed to reduce tension, revitalize the wearer and encourage a positive attitude.

Brown goldstone, with its copper content, is believed to carry many of the metaphysical properties of that metal. It is thought to generate and revitalize energy fields, transmit positivity and divert malevolent energy into the earth.

Brown goldstone is associated with the root chakra and the zodiac sign of Sagittarius.
