Bronzite Pierced Pendant
Bronzite Pierced Pendant from China
Bronzite
Bronzite is a brown-gold mineral belonging to the pyroxene group. It stands out for its silky luster and metallic appearance, caused by fine inclusions of iron. Its colour ranges from olive brown to dark brown with golden reflections, which makes bronzite popular for decorative applications.
The mineral is found in India, Brazil, Austria and the United States, among others. Bronzite is an iron-rich variety of enstatite with the formula (Mg,Fe)₂Si₂O₆. It forms in metamorphic and igneous rocks and has a hardness of 5.5 to 6 on the Mohs scale.

Pierced Pendants
Pierced pendants are polished and cut (precious) stones with a drill hole, making them easy to wear on a cord or chain. This makes them a popular choice for jewellery. In most cases, the pendants are pierced widthwise, from left to right.
The pierced pendants are available in various shapes and sizes, including drop, oval, point and heart. Some of the range is manufactured in China, while other pendants come from Madagascar. The pierced diameter varies by model and is usually between 2 and 4 mm. We sell the pierced pendants individually, with some having a minimum order of 5 pieces. Unfortunately, we do not currently have any matching cord or chain in our range!
