Opalite

Opalite is a relatively new stone that was introduced by China during the 1980s.  This beautiful milky blue white material actually isn't a stone at all, but rather glass!  Opalite is also known by many other names, including Sea Opal, Opal Quartz, Opal Moonstone and Argenon but again, it is simply man-made glass.  Our Opalite beads are also categorized in our glass bead section, and we carry several unique cuts and sizes.  Use this popular material in your next project for a truely beautiful design!

• Despite being man-made glass, Opalite is believed to soothe nerves, bring inner peace and imbue calm.  It is also most associated with the Zodiac sign of Cancer.
