Man-made hematite in a twisted oval form at 8x16mm — the elongated shape and subtle spiral give these beads a sculptural presence that flat or round hematite simply can't match.

Hematite's signature metallic grey catches light along every ridge of the twist, giving each bead a cool, industrial sheen with depth that shifts as it moves.

What to make with them

String them as bold focal points on a single-strand necklace where the elongated silhouette does the talking, or space them as dramatic accents between smaller beads in a multi-strand design — the twisted profile also plays well with wire wrapping, where the ridges give wraps something to grip.

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.
