aventurine
Glittering green mineral
Aventurine is a translucent variety of quartz characterized by a sparkling, shimmering effect caused by tiny mineral inclusions, typically mica or fuchsite.
The most common color is green, though it also occurs in blue, orange, brown, and other shades.
This glittery appearance, called aventurescence, makes it popular in jewelry and decorative objects.
She wore an aventurine pendant that caught the light beautifully.
