The origin of the name moonstone comes from distant civilizations that named stones based on their natural appearance or physical characteristics.

Moonstone was named for its striking resemblance to the moon. This stone has a soft color with pearly reflections similar to those of the moon.

In ancient times, there was a belief that moonstone was actually pieces of solidified moon that arrived on earth. However, this name moonstone is a purely commercial denomination.

The scientific name of this stone is adularia. In fact, during the 18th century, a significant deposit of this adularia stone was found on Mount Adula, located on the border between Switzerland and Italy. Today, this deposit is unfortunately exhausted.

Moonstone is also called Hecatolite in honor of Hecate, goddess of the Moon in Greek mythology.

No matter what name we give to this stone, it maintains a close link with the moon, which gives it many virtues.
