Belonging to the family of oligoclases, the Sunstone (formerly called star Stone) is mainly extracted in Canada, the United States, Norway, Russia, India and Madagascar.

This stone was used throughout many civilisations, such as the Celts and Buddhists. It was revered by the Vikings, who gave it the power to facilitate access to Valhalla, a place of rest and peace for dead warriors. Archaeologists have also hypothesised that the Scandinavian people used it as a compass to guide their ships. In Ancient Greece, it was worn in the form of jewellery, and it conferred prosperity and longevity on its owner.
