character see aventurine honkai star rail aventurine is used for a number of applications including landscape stone building stone aquaria monuments and jewelry aventurine is a form of quartzite characterised by its translucency and the presence of platy mineral inclusions that give it a shimmering or glistening effect termed aventurescence background edit the most common color of aventurine is green but it can also be orange brown yellow blue or grey chrome bearing fuchsite a variety of muscovite mica is the classic inclusion and gives a silvery green or blue sheen oranges and browns are attributed to hematite or goethite because aventurine is a rock its physical properties vary its specific gravity may lie between 2 64 2 69 and its hardness is somewhat lower than single crystal quartz at around 6 5 citation needed aventurine aventurine feldspar or sunstone can be confused with orange and red aventurine quartzite although the former is generally of a higher transparency aventurine is often banded and an overabundance of fuchsite may render it opaque in which case it may be mistaken for malachite at first glance citation needed the name aventurine derives from the italian a ventura meaning by chance this is an allusion to the lucky discovery of aventurine glass or goldstone at some point in the 18th century one story is that this kind of glass was originally made accidentally at murano by a workman who let some copper filings fall into the molten metal whence the product was called avventurino from the murano glass the name passed to the mineral which displayed a rather similar appearance 1 although it was known first goldstone is now a common imitation of aventurine and sunstone goldstone is distinguished visually from the latter two minerals by its coarse flecks of copper dispersed within the glass in an unnaturally uniform manner it is usually a golden brown but may also be found in blue or green citation needed the majority of green and blue green aventurine originates in india particularly in the vicinity of mysore and chennai where it is employed by prolific artisans creamy white gray and orange material is found in chile spain and russia most material is carved into beads and figurines with only the finer examples fashioned into cabochons later being set into jewelry citation needed see also edit dioptase optical phenomena list
