Stone Beads — Bronzite, Tiger Eye, Brown Stones, Earth Tones

Bronzite is an interesting metallicy bronzey colour with a distinctive fibrous pattern.

Tiger eye is a "chatoyant" stone - which means that it has inclusions of fibrous crystals which give it a silky lustre. The inclusions run parallel in a specific direction, so the stone appears to shimmer slightly as you move it around.

We try to choose consistent stock, but the nature of natural stones is that there will be inconsistency between strands and between individual beads.

Ethnic Stone Beads - Olive - Conglomerate (1)
Conglomerate stone - this particular stone puts me in mind of cork for it's patterns, but of course, the weight is no where like cork. Very interesting stone beads, colour varies, and some have some interesting texture. Matt finish. Very earthy. Sort of a beach stone feeling to them. 17mm x 50mm By the each.
