Comfortable

A lit lamp under skin — the warm inner glow of a woman who is at ease in her own house.

Peach Moonstone · The Law of Prospects

Family: Orthoclase feldspar with albite layering
Hardness: 6–6.5 on the Mohs scale
Colour: Warm apricot to blush cream
Signature: Adularescence — light that seems to move under the surface

The stone read as the word

Moonstone's glow is not on the stone; it is inside it. Alternating microscopic layers of two feldspars scatter light and send it back soft, so the whole cabochon looks lamplit from within. The peach variety carries iron, which warms the light from silver to hearth.

Comfort is that: not the absence of edges, but light diffused so nothing glares. A comfortable woman is a room people can sit down in.

What it is carried for

Carried to soften a hard week without dulling it.
Held to make her presence a place others can rest in.
