Description
This is Amazonite, a type of green feldspar. It has a bright green and white striped variety of microcline feldspar. Green and greenish-blue varieties of potassium feldspars that are predominantly triclinic are often called Amazonite, named after the Amazon River from which certain green stones were formerly obtained but it is doubtful whether green feldspar occurs in the Amazon area. Amazonite is sometimes cut and polished for use in jewellery.
