These stones were used to make jewelry, beads and amulets dating back to the Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt. Amazonite is a newer trade name for the mineral microcline, which is a form of orthoclase feldspar. Stones have a waxy shiny polish and the blue-green coloring come from traces of iron in the stone. An ancient tribe of warrior women called the Amazonians used this gemstone to decorate their battle gear. Amazonite is called the balancing stone for your feminine and masculine sides.
