Feldnar crystal

Feldnar was a type of gemstone that was most often found amongst naturally-occurring deposits. Its crystalline structure was based on a high-pressure bonding of carbon and hfredium, which resulted in a distinctive and striking blue-green hue; when properly cut and faceted, feldnar gems would alternate between a value similar to or, depending on lighting conditions. Since hfredium was used primarily in the construction of s, most corporations that had set up shop on a given lode would set up smaller-scale gem-mining operations to procure the feldnar for sale on the market. While feldnar crystals were prized for their beauty, they were relatively common, enough so that only the most exceptionally well-formed gems were considered for sale to the galaxy's elite.

When placed in a, feldnar crystals produced an aquamarine blade that was wider than the norm by as much as four or five millimeters, which necessitated a different approach when constructing the hilt of the weapon. The and the magnetic stabilizer loop had to be built with a larger diameter than what would otherwise be specified, in order to contain the wider blade. Practitioners of the style preferred this thicker blade, however, as it increased the odds of successfully deflecting or redirecting a  bolt.
