Goldstone Tumblestone

Goldstone may not be a naturally occurring crystal (it is artificially made), that does not mean that it does not carry many benefits and abilities to aid us. Goldstone is created by warming molten rocks to a suitable temperature enough to break down oxidised copper grains added to it.

Its origins are not known fully, but some believe it was accidentally made in an Italian monastery but there are talks of it elsewhere such as Iran, too.  

It has been linked to the medieval art of alchemy almost from its creation.

When starting on exciting challenges, Goldstone is an excellent gemstone to carry with you.

Appearance

Reddish-brown or golden colour with copper flecks. Goldstone is smooth and polished with reflective inclusions.

Healing uses

Goldstone is wonderful for treating emotional wounds. It teaches us to embrace the greatness in our life; it is a stone of happiness and optimism.

Goldstone also helps with breaking through interpersonal boundaries and can help with families and relationships.

When you're working with Goldstone, it's unlikely that it won't inspire you. Goldstone can calm your brain and assist you in gaining fresh insights.
