Aventurine is a translucent variation of quartz that can occur in many different colors, with pale green and peach being the most common. In jewelry design, Green Aventurine looks great with gold or silver metals. This stone coordinates well with Smoky Quartz, Pyrite, and Hematite. Peach Aventurine looks best with gold metals and peach or orange gemstones like Peach Moonstone and Carnelian.

Aventurine is most commonly sourced from India. Due to its lucky symbolism, this stone gets its name from the Italian term “a ventura” which means “by chance.” 

This stone is said to be one of the luckiest crystals, especially for attracting prosperity or wealth. Many gemstone experts believe that Aventurine also holds healing properties that help with public speaking and performance anxiety.
