Because it is hardy, often spectacularly colored, and polishes to a high shine, it has long been valued for decorative purposes. It is formed in alternating layers that produce the distinctive banding effect, of which there are many varieties worldwide. Aventurine is a variety of quartz that contains mica fragments that sparkle and give color in the light, making them attractive as gemstones or beads for jewelry. It is often mistaken for jade because of its most common green color.
