8mm Hematite Bead Bracelet

Hematite is an iron oxide mineral with a metallic sheen, most commonly found in shades of silver, black, or deep red. Its name comes from the Greek word haima, meaning "blood," due to the reddish streak it leaves behind when scratched. Hematite has been used since ancient times, from early cave paintings to protective amulets in Ancient Egypt. Major deposits are found in Brazil, Australia, and the United States.

Metaphysically, hematite is known as a powerful grounding stone. It is believed to absorb negative energy, enhance focus, and promote emotional balance, making it a go-to crystal for protection, clarity, and stability.
