Description
Hematite is the ore most of the world's iron comes out of, and it is the reason Mars is red: the planet's surface is coated in it. On earth the great banded iron formations are around two and a half billion years old and they record the moment oxygen first appeared in the oceans, when dissolved iron and new oxygen precipitated out together.
It looks like polished metal and it does not behave like it. Hematite is brittle, and a bracelet that gets stepped on will shatter rather than dent.
At 6mm the density is unmistakable. This is the heaviest bracelet on the page for its size, and the weight is the working part: worn to stay in the body, to hold attention in one place, and to feel where your own edges are.
How to Wear It
- Wear it on the working hand when you need to concentrate.
- Notice the weight deliberately. That is the practice, not a side note.
- Keep it dry. The surface will rust if you leave it wet.
Wear It With
See the 4mm, tumbled hematite and the Hematite and Obsidian bracelet.
Round 6mm beads on a stretch cord, sized to fit most adult wrists. The 6mm has weight to it. You feel it against the wrist through the day, which is the whole argument for the larger bead. Natural stone, so the color and marking run differently through every bead.
