Wasn't really sure what I was looking for Everything they sell in the shop as "moonstone" was white and no bigger than a small marble I need to read more about it and get back out thers

I'm really glad you posted the pic of the okanite specimen from India for $595. I acquired one that looks just like that but only a fourth the size in an estate sale and I had no idea what it was.
