Sunstone 6x11mm Side Drilled Points - 15-16-Inch latest-8bicones until the 17th century CrystalSunstone, a variety of Feldspar, is aptly named for its shades of gold, orange, red and brown, as well as its iridescent sparkle. As the stone catches the light, inclusions of Goethite or Hematite refract the light between the layers of the crystal, producing the effect of the stone seeming to shine from within.
