Its pale colour comes from its fine internal structure: microscopic layers of orthoclase and albite feldspar, stacked in alternating sheets. Light entering the stone scatters between these layers, producing the soft glow and occasional flashes of blue or white known as adularescence. The dark inclusions visible in these pieces are natural mineral deposits, most often biotite or magnetite, trapped as the crystal grew.
