Goldstone is a sparkly copper stone made of glass. Blue Goldstone, made by adding powdered cobalt to the glass during the fabrication process, has a deep, luxurious blue color. 

In jewelry design, we love pairing Goldstone with gold metals and other warm-toned gemstones including Smoky Quartz, Picture Jasper, and Sunstone. Blue Goldstone looks best with silver and grey gemstones like Hematite and Labradorite.

Although Goldstone is not a naturally-occurring mineral, it is a beautiful stone beloved by many designers throughout recent history. The widespread manufacturing of Goldstone started in 17th century Italy, although sculptures and amulets of a similar material to Goldstone have been traced back to 12th-century Iranian artistry. In order for Goldstone to be created, copper ions must be heated to over 2,000 degrees Farenheit in a low-oxegyn environment to melt into glass stone. Goldstone is also referred to as Sandstone since it is made from glass.

In the metaphysical community, Goldstone is considered the Stone of Ambition, increasing confidence and motivation. Gemstone enthusiasts also believe that Goldstone holds healing properties that can be used to increase vitality and energy.
