Blue Sandstone – A Keeper of Ambition, Confidence & Cosmic Calm

A Blue Sandstone Bead Strand (also known as Blue Goldstone) carries a sparkling, cosmic energy — its deep night‑sky blue filled with shimmering metallic stars. Though man‑made, Blue Sandstone has a long, enchanting history linked with alchemy, monastic glassmaking, and the mystical traditions of Venice.

Blue Sandstone is widely associated with confidence, focus, creativity, and uplifting energy — a beautiful companion for both calm communication and inspired action.

For jewellery creators, bead strands provide exceptional value, consistency, and creative flexibility. Purchasing by the strand gives you enough beads for multiple pieces — bracelets, earrings, necklaces, keyrings, malas or intention‑based creations — at a far lower cost per bead. This allows you to:

  • Increase profit margins on handmade jewellery
  • Create cohesive, matching collections
  • Work with consistent colour and sparkle
  • Design multiple pieces from a single strand

Each strand becomes a universe of shimmering blue light, ready to be formed into meaningful, uplifting pieces.


A Brief History of Blue Sandstone

According to legend, Blue Sandstone was first created accidentally by Venetian monks or alchemists in the 17th century, when copper shavings spilled into molten glass — creating the first sparkling “aventurine glass.” 

This process was kept secret by the Murano glassmaking guilds and later became known as Monk’s Gold or Monkstone, names still used today. 

Historical evidence also shows that similar sparkling glass materials existed as early as the 1100–1200s, linking Blue Sandstone to ancient artistic and alchemical traditions. 

Today, Blue Sandstone is appreciated for both its beauty and its uplifting metaphysical qualities.


Form & Structure

Number of Beads per Strand: 150-170
Approx. Length of Strand: 

Each strand contains polished Blue Sandstone beads, made from glass infused with tiny metallic inclusions (often copper or manganese) that create its starry shimmer.
Colours range from deep midnight blue to lighter cerulean tones, with a sparkling, cosmic effect throughout.

Perfect for jewellery making, malas, intention pieces, throat‑chakra designs, and uplifting spiritual tools.


Assorted Crystals – Important Note

When a product is labelled “assorted,” the strands shown are examples only. The strand you receive will be similar in quality and beauty, but not identical.
Every bead varies slightly in tone, shimmer, and sparkle — exactly as intended.


Note on Dyed, Frosted or Heat‑Treated Beads

Some beads — especially agate, quartz and porous stones — may be dyed, frosted, or heat‑treated to alter their appearance. These changes affect looks only; the base material remains the same, and the metaphysical qualities still apply. Such enhancements are widely accepted in the jewellery‑making world.


Healing and Metaphysical Properties of Blue Sandstone
