It's true -- not everything that glitters is gold. But anything that glitters is mesmerizing. The tiny golden flecks sparkling against a dark blue background in blue "goldstone" sets people to dreaming of night skies and the magic that can unfold beneath them. The golden flecks -- and there seem to be thousands of them -- glittering through the rich background of brown "goldstone" add a touch of excitement to jewelry and to the life of anyone who wears it

Goldstone is a little-known gemstone that was speculated to have been discovered during the European Renaissance by glass-manufacturing monks in Venice 

The copper crystalises creates the impression of a reddish-brown stone with a golden starry-glitter. The reddish-brown hue of the stone is actually an illusion. The stone itself is transparent and is given the appearance of reddish-brown by the copper crystals.

Goldstone can also be found in blue, which is paradoxically known as blue goldstone.
