This gorgeous gemstone is Pietersite from Namibia, South Africa. 

This magnificent gemstone is a type of chalcedony that is distinguished by its swirling bands of various colours, including blue, gold, red, and brown. It is named after Sid Pieters, who first discovered it in Namibia in 1962. From a geological perspective, Pietersite Quartz is a product of volcanic activity.

Pietersite is believed to be a prevailing protection stone, principally in opposition to the elements. It makes nervous people and animals comfortable during storms and protects the wearer when he/she is driving in bad weather. It is a wonderful stone for those who get affected by the adverse effects of technology.

Stone: Natural African Pietersite.
Material: 925 Solid Silver.
Approx stone size: 35mm x 28mm, ring is adjustable.

Beautiful Gemstones Designed by Nature

The Henryka Designer Gemstones Collection is a celebration of completely natural and beautifully rare gemstones from across the world.

Each gemstone is carefully hand-chosen by us for its natural and un-treated colours and patterns. We look for vibrant gemstones we know you will love, as well as rare gemstones you may have never even heard of from all corners of the earth.

Instead of seeking perfection, we choose gemstones based on the natural quirks and inclusions that make them entirely unique. This means incredible stripes, bold spots, wave-like ripples and swirls that give each gemstone its own unique fingerprint.

These characterful gemstones are then cut, polished and set BY HAND into silver jewellery designs, from statement necklaces to rings, earrings and bracelets. When wearing a piece of Henryka Designer Gemstone jewellery, you can be assured that no one will ever be wearing the same piece. It is individual to you.
