Peach moonstone, a variety of orthoclase feldspar with a delicate orange to pinkish-orange hue, exhibits a soft, adularescent shimmer known as schiller. This optical phenomenon arises from the interlayering of different feldspar minerals within its structure, scattering light and creating a dreamy, ethereal glow. Like other varieties of moonstone, its color can range from almost transparent with a subtle blush to a more opaque, peachy hue.
Historically valued for its perceived connection to the divine feminine and lunar energies, this gemstone is often associated with emotional balance, nurturing, and inner peace. Its gentle energy is believed to soothe stress and promote feelings of tranquility. This perceived calming influence makes it a popular choice for jewelry and meditative practices.
