Hi...

    I have a question. I have some stones and I want to know what they
    are, history, anything anyone knows? They are called: "night stars"
    sun sitara which appears to connect them to sun stone also called sun
    sitara? 

    I know very little about stones. I think these are some form of
    drusy (sp?) stone, meaning they have small crystals on or inside
    them. These have small reflections (appearing like tiny crystals)
    under the surface of the stone. 

    They are very beautiful, and I have some, but am not sure what they
    are. Any and all help would be appreciated. I've tried looking this
    up on the internet, but mostly come upon either contradictory
    information or a bunch of auctions...yet no answers. Please help? :) 

Thank you,
Kim
