Sandstone Goldstone Information

Blue sandstone, commonly referred to as goldstone glass, is a captivating synthetic material renowned for its stunning sparkle and deep blue color. Craftsmen create goldstone by infusing glass with various minerals, particularly copper, which gives it its distinctive shimmering effect. The result is a vibrant stone that captures the eye and radiates a sense of depth and wonder.

Fashion and Jewelry

Jewelry designers frequently use blue sandstone to create a wide array of beautiful pieces, including necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings. Cosmic Blue Goldstone Stud Earrings deep blue hue and glittering finish make it an ideal choice for both casual and formal attire. The combination of blue sandstone with silver or gold settings enhances its visual appeal, creating striking contrasts. Additionally, the unique appearance of blue sandstone allows it to stand out, making it a favored choice for statement jewelry.

History, Mythology, and Symbolism

Although blue sandstone is a manmade stone, it has garnered various meanings and associations over the years. Many people believe it to possess properties that promote ambition, confidence, and motivation. As a result, wearers often see blue sandstone as a symbol of hope and perseverance, inspiring them to pursue their dreams. Furthermore, the stone’s sparkling quality evokes a sense of magic and enchantment, making it a popular choice for those interested in the metaphysical aspects of gemstones.

Mining, Production, and Applications

Since blue sandstone is synthetic, artisans manufacture it through a meticulous process. They melt glass and add minerals to achieve the desired color and sparkle. Once cooled, craftsmen shape and polish the material into beautiful beads, cabochons, and other forms used in jewelry. Beyond adornment, blue sandstone also finds its place in home decor, where it can be crafted into decorative items such as coasters, figurines, and wall art.

Care Guide

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the beads and metal components with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, lightly dampen the cloth with water, but avoid soaking the earrings. Use a soft toothbrush for cleaning hard-to-reach areas. Avoid harsh chemicals or cleaning solutions.
  • Storage: Store earrings in a dry, cool place, ideally in a fabric-lined jewelry box or pouch to protect them from dust and scratches. When not in use, keep earrings separate from other jewelry to prevent abrasions. Avoid storing in damp or humid environments.
  • Metal Care: The black-coated hypoallergenic copper ear wires, darkened pins, and zinc alloy components may gradually tarnish with time. Clean these parts gently using a jewelry cloth designed for metals. Avoid using abrasive cloths or cleaning agents that could damage the finish. To minimize tarnishing, store your earrings in a dry, airtight container when not in use.
  • Stone Care: Each semi-precious stone and bead (such as tiger’s eye, onyx, jasper, and others) can be sensitive to extreme temperatures or moisture. Keep earrings away from perfume, lotions, and harsh chemicals. Use a soft cloth to wipe the beads clean and avoid abrasive materials that could scratch or dull the surface of the stones.
  • Durability: While the materials are generally sturdy, avoid wearing earrings in situations where they could be subjected to excessive pressure, such as sleeping, exercising, or heavy impacts. Regular wear should be fine, but always handle the earrings with care to maintain their beauty and longevity.

Weight Priciples

In principle I keep the weight below 5 grams per earring, so it doesn’t stretch or hurt your ears even if you wear it the whole day. Occasionally, for some designs, that weight limit exceeds by a gram – every pair has their specific weight marked under the overview tab.

Note that some earring hooks have thicker wires, and if you are not used to wearing earrings daily, using them will feel uncomfortable in the beginning.
