Aventurine Rough — Mexico

Green aventurine rough from Mexico features the characteristic sparkling fuchsite inclusion finish — called aventurescence — that gives this stone its signature shimmer. A member of the quartz family, aventurine rough is highly workable for tumbling, cabochon cutting, and carving, finishing to a smooth, reflective surface with subtle natural sparkle. One of the most popular beginner and gift-market crystals, aventurine is associated with luck, opportunity, and heart-centered energy.
