Gemstones – by Stone

Ocean Jasper

Incredible Ocean Jasper–a new find from Madagascar.

Every piece is different. Ocean Jasper is a lovely mingling of colors. There are whispers of most every color found in nature in these lovely stones. Ocean Jasper is produced from only one mine near Marovato. The deposit, being located at the edge of the ocean in Northwest Madagascar, can only be seen and collected from at low tide. This remote area has no roads so the material must be transported to civilization by boat. Excellent as accent pieces on any custom design.

Every stone is unique, so the pictures below are for illustrative purposes only and actual strands will differ – but should still be very nice! 🙂

Magnetic Hematite

Hi! It’s Jim, the TC web-designer here. I’ve heard that magnetic hematite (an iron ore, like lodestone or magnetite) has supposedly got “natural healing powers of balance”. I don’t know about that, but it was a joy to work with them. Scanning beads in can sometimes be a bit of a nightmare: these, being attracted to each other, just lie down in neat rows. Can we sell more magnetic stuff, please, Chris? 🙂

Also, Nancy W. writes, “Just wanted to let you know that magnetic hematite also has great pain killing powers for carpal tunnel syndrome! I’ve been wearing a bracelet for a while now and have no problems. If I take it off, I can feel it in a day or so.” Obviously, not quite a clinical trial, but who can say?

5x8mm Faceted Hematite Oval Beads

45 cents each

Magnetic Faceted Oval Beads are not sold by the strand, rather by the piece. Faceted 5x8mm, each bead is great to work with, as Jim noted above. If you make multiple strands, you can see from the illustration that they will stay together. And alternatively, if you want the strands to stay apart, just reverse the polarity when you string them. The possibilities are endless! Order by the piece.

Green goldstone is fabulous looking, because of the stunning emerald green sparkles all through it. The picture above doesn’t do it justice at all, but is perhaps enough to give you an idea. If you didn’t know better, you’d think these were just black onyx. That is, until the light hits it, or better yet, take them out into the sun…and it’s unreal. These green goldstone beads will make any design you create a veritable work of art.
