This batch of Pink Aventurine beads are all a subtel light pink, not mixed coloured like the standard Pink Aventurine strands. This is great option if you are looking for a more consistant pink colour Aventurine for your project. Please note there still may be slight varients in colour.
Aventurine is named for its resemblance to the well-known aventurine glass of Venice, Italy. Tradition has it that a Murano workman accidentally dropped some copper filings in molten glass, creating an attractive new material. And so the glass was named avventurino for the Italian word avventura, or "by chance." Aventurine is a form of chalcedony (quartz).
