For saying the true thing without the sharp edge.
Amazonite was cut for amulets in Egypt and set into the green stones of the Nile long before it took its river name. In crystal tradition it is the stone of the plain sentence — worn when you need to say the true thing without the sharp edge that usually comes with it. The white streaks are feldspar, not flaws.
