Man-made hematite in a compact 2mm round — this little bead punches well above its size with a dense, weighty feel and that signature dark metallic look that synthetic hematite does so well.

The finish reads as a deep grey with an oxide-hematite sheen, shifting toward cool purple undertones depending on the light — moody and quietly dramatic.

What to make with them

At 2mm, these rounds are ideal for fine accent rows in bead weaving, as spacers between focal stones in strung designs, or packed tightly into peyote and brick stitch for a sleek, almost industrial surface texture.

Description

Hematite is an iron ore highly popular in bead and jewelry designs. Nearly all Hematite beads on the market are man made materials (ours too), but are still an iron ore and have the same chemical make up as natural hematite. The name Hematite stems from the Greek word "Haem" for blood as natural hematite holds a reddish tint, while commercially available hematite beads do not. Hematite has been used for eons, even by pre-historic man for cave paintings. Man Made Hematite is often magnetized and used in magnetic therapy jewelry. Hematite beads loook awesome when paired with the fiery facets of crystal or fire polished beads.
