[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4495011, member: 2844"]Beautiful, and I thought moonstone at first too, but chalcedony can be this lovely milky white. Moonstone is a feldspar, a bit lower on the Mohs scale, so it wouldn't test as chalcedony. Absolutely. That is why it was called moonstone in the first place. They didn't mean 'once in a blue moon'.:playful:[/QUOTE]
