Discover the mysterious, sub-metallic glow of our Natural Black Moonstone Rough Stones. Sourced from the mineral-rich terrains of Madagascar, this variety of Feldspar is prized for its deep, dark-grey to charcoal body color and its characteristic silvery-white "schiller" (adularescence) that moves across the surface as the stone is turned.
Raw & Natural Quality:
These are unpolished, "as-found" rough specimens. While they appear dark and matte in their dry, raw state, their internal light-reflecting properties are easily revealed when wet or after professional polishing. Each bag contains a natural variety of shapes and textures, showcasing the layered crystal structure typical of high-quality Madagascan Feldspar.
Versatile Applications:
- Lapidary Work: A premier choice for cutting cabochons or tumbling. When polished, the "flash" becomes much more pronounced and centered.
- Retail "Bin" Items: These larger rough pieces are excellent for gift shop displays, geological educational sets, or as raw decorative accents.
- Artistic Inlays: The dark base color provides a striking contrast for woodworking or resin art projects.
