This unique piece has had a recent life in France.
The story: The discovery of the Goldstone stone originates from the seventeenth century and is the result of a fortuitous discovery. Indeed, a Murano glassmaker spilled copper filings into molten glass and a new crystal appeared after a slow cooling. A new stone with a beautiful glittery appearance was born. Originally named Aventurine Glass (meaning “obtained by accident”), this stone is better known today as “Goldstone”. Aptly nicknamed the “Stone of Happiness” in its red-brown version and “Star Stone” in its midnight blue variant, the Goldstone is an unbeatable source of joy and vitality.
