PYRITE  – 33 Beads, 10mm

Description:

Pyrite, often called "Fool's Gold," is a shimmering, metallic gold-colored mineral that has captivated people for centuries due to its brilliant luster and its resemblance to real gold. Despite its misleading nickname, Pyrite is a sulfur-containing iron mineral that has significant metaphysical and practical uses. It's widely appreciated for its protective, energetic, and manifestation properties.

Pyrite has a distinctive metallic yellow to golden-brown color, which is often why it’s mistaken for real gold. The gold hue can range from bright, shiny yellow to a darker, more brassy tone. Pyrite crystals form in cubic or octahedral shapes, often with sharp edges and smooth faces. It is also found as massive formations or irregular shapes. Pyrite may also occur in granular or nodular clusters, sometimes with inclusions of other minerals. Pyrite is known for its metallic or glassy luster, which gives it a shiny, reflective surface that resembles the sparkle of gold. Pyrite is a relatively hard mineral with a Mohs hardness of 6–6.5, which means it can scratch glass and other softer materials.
