39ST403-6: Hematite 6 Sided Oval 8x16mm is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Man-made hematite in a six-sided oval cut measuring 8x16mm — the kind of substantial, structured bead that anchors a design rather than disappearing into it.
Hematite's oxide finish delivers that signature dark, metallic grey with a cool undertone — weighty-looking and reflective without being flashy.
String these as a focal strand in a chunky necklace or use them as bold spacers between larger statement pieces; their faceted oval profile also makes them strong candidates for drop earrings where the flat sides catch light with every movement.
Pickup available at 8535 Commerce Place Drive NE Ste A

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.
