Man-made hematite in a clean 5mm round — this is the bead that brings serious weight and a gunmetal-grey presence to any design that calls for something grounded and a little severe.

The oxide hematite finish delivers a dense, mirror-like grey with cool undertones that reads almost metallic in the light.

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.
