They are not. Moonstone is a feldspar, and while it cooled, two slightly different feldspars separated into microscopic layers inside it. Light that enters the bead bounces between those layers and comes back out as a soft, floating sheen that moves as you turn your wrist. Mineralogists named the effect adularescence, after Mount Adula in the Swiss Alps. Everybody else has spent two thousand years calling it moonlight, because that is precisely what it looks like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sheen is not always blue. Most moonstone flashes white or silver; a clean blue flash is the rarer version, the one the trade grades highest, and it is what these beads have. It is also why this stone is hard to photograph honestly. The effect needs a light coming from one direction and something darker behind it. In flat daylight the same beads look like clear water with a faint thread of colour running through it — which is the other half of what moonstone is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt belongs to the Water element: the phase of flow, timing and depth, the element that gets past things by going around them instead of through.

Moonstone is softer than quartz and it has a direction: feldspar splits along flat planes, so a knock against a table edge can take a chip out of a bead that quartz would have shrugged off.

A glass imitation is uniformly milky, and if it flashes at all, the flash sits flat on the surface and stays put when you turn the bead. On the real thing the sheen floats inside, moves as the angle changes, and the stone around it has natural structure in it — faint wisps and internal lines you can see through a bead this clear.
