Hematite's naturally dark, mirror-like oxide finish gives these beads a moody, industrial sheen that shifts between deep grey and subtle purple depending on the light.
String them into a delicate bracelet where the heart silhouette does the talking, or mix them into a Gothic or Victorian-inspired necklace alongside darker gemstones and oxidized metal findings for a layered, dramatic effect.

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.
