Pietersite Double Butterfly Pendant from China
Pietersite
Pietersite is a fibrous, breccia-like variety of quartz with inclusions of amphiboles, such as crocidolite. It is known for its vibrant chatoyance and dynamic colour patterns in shades of blue, gold, reddish-brown and sometimes grey or black. Due to its fractured and re-cemented appearance, pietersite is also known as "stormstone".
Pietersite was first discovered in Namibia in 1962 and later in China. The stone is formed when fibrous minerals such as tiger's eye are broken, moved and re-hardened within quartz by geological processes. Its chemical base is SiOâ‚‚, and its hardness is between 6.5 and 7 on the Mohs scale.
