The galaxy stone
Made with glass and sparkle.
Blue sandstone is a glass, made from natural materials such as sand, limestone and soda ash together with quartz sand. The quartz sand is heated and melted, then infused with particles of minerals like chromium, manganese, copper, cobalt and feldspar, which give it its sparkling specks of color. It isn't a naturally occurring stone, but because its components are naturally occurring minerals, it is still considered a stone.
Its origin is still debated, but crystal experts trace it to the 17th century and the Miotti family of Venetian glassmakers, said to have invented the technique. Blue sandstone is manufactured in Italy.
