"This is not a clear stone but is by far a very bright aqua blue that is very eye catching. I bought this stone to set in the rose gold pendant that is also offered by JTV. If you love this color you will not be disappointed.
Thank you JTV"

Fast Facts
| Chalcedony is a species name for all cryptocrystalline (fine-grained) quartzes as well as the name of a specific gemstone in that species. The actual chalcedony gemstones come in a range of blue-white-gray hues. |
| Chalcedony is listed as one of the stones in the foundation of the city walls of the New Jerusalem in Revelation (21:19). |
| Its durability, beauty, and abundance made chalcedony one of the earliest raw materials used by humans. |
Originally shaped into knives, tools, and containers, chalcedony eventually was used as an adornment, sometimes even carved into cameos.
|
Sources for chalcedony include Brazil, India, Madagascar, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka, Uruguay, and the United States (California).
|
|
Chalcedony represents a family of fine-grained (cryptocrystalline) quartz crystals including agate, chyrsoprase, bloodstone, jasper, carnelian, moss agate, onyx, and sard, as well as one variety known specifically as chalcedony. On Mohs’ scale of hardness, all chalcedonies are 6.5 – 7. In its natural state, chalcedony has a waxy or dull luster.
Color
The actual chalcedony stone itself is bluish-white-gray.
