About Aventurine:
Aventurine is a type of Quartz frequently used for carvings and cabochons. Aventurine is mainly dark green, sometimes with a glittery metallic appearance caused by green mica inclusions. Hematite inclusions cause a reddish or greyish sparkle. Aventurine was originally an accidental discovery made by Venetian glass-workers during the 18th century. The name Aventurine was derived from Italian words “a ventura”, which means “by chance.” Deposits are found in Brazil, India, Austria, Russia, and Tanzania.

The two beads are of slightly different diameter, but the quality appears to be fine. I wish they were a little more speckled as in the picture.
