MOONSTONE:

Moonstone has been used in jewellery for nearly two thousand years, even longer in the Orient. It has always been a sacred stone in India with a special significance for lovers and is a traditional wedding gift. Moonstone is known as the Traveler's Stone for the protection it affords, especially at night, and because of its uplifting quality of hope. 

Named for its moon-like sheen, Moonstone is a Feldspar mineral exhibiting a soft, watery opaqueness and a silvery-white reflection called chatoyancy that moves as a line across the surface as light varies. Moonstone occurs in delicate shades of peach, blue, grey, white and a prismatic variety known as Rainbow Moonstone.
