Goldfluss - Bluefluss
Physical Information
Blue goldstone, also called goldfluss or blue sandstone, is not a natural stone. It is a man-made glass. During production, tiny metal crystals form inside the molten glass as it slowly cools. These crystals give the stone its famous sparkle. The glass is a deep navy or midnight blue, full of small glittering points of light.
Because of this look, blue goldstone often reminds people of a clear night sky full of stars. It is fairly durable and takes a high polish, so it is popular for beads, pendants, palm stones and small carvings. It is easy to care for: just wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
Metaphysical Properties
Even though it is made by people, many crystal lovers enjoy working with blue goldstone. It is known as a stone of ambition and hope. It is believed to encourage a positive outlook and to remind us to keep reaching for our goals, even in darker moments. Many people use it as a small reminder that there is always light around them.
Blue goldstone is associated with the throat chakra and the third eye chakra. Some people keep it nearby during evening meditation or while journaling about dreams and plans. It is also a popular gift for someone starting a new chapter in life.
