A Hematite Necklace or Ring - Mixing fashion, history and metaphysical healing

Hematite jewelry is primarily iron – it is an iron ore, a natural mineral widely available and is used in jewelry for its dexterity - it can be molded easily. But it is more popularly used for its healing properties. A hematite necklace looks stunning because of the deep luster of this metal. You will also have a choice of color for your hematite necklace as the metal is available in a number of colors like black, grey, brown and an intense blood colored red. There are a number of jewelry stores online that specialize in selling hematite rings, bracelets and necklaces with healing properties such as celtic, gemstone, birthstone and hematite jewelry.


Caring for Hematite Jewelry and Necklaces

New Age healers believe that a hematite necklace creates a calm mental state in the person wearing it and is a very effective stress buster, but the metal itself needs a little caring as it can rust and even scratch. So these necklaces and bracelets need to be stored carefully.


Hematite Jewelry – Gift some healing with the feelings

That’s a good thought isn’t it? Healers and therapists assert that the ore has therapeutic and healing properties such as stress relief. It also improves memory, logic and creativity. If fact the very name for this iron ore originates from the Greek word haima - which literally means blood. Roman warriors used the metal extensively in their armours – in the blood red color – and hence the name. They believed it protected them and even that it granted them invincibility.


I’m not buying the invincibility bit yet, but hematite jewelry has been proven to help in mental healing. Hematite rings or necklaces would be an ideal gift if she leads a stress heavy life or has an exhausting job. It will show that you care about her and the work she does. Hematite jewelry can make for great personalized gifts and you could include gemstones and charms to go with your selected necklace or bracelet. A hematite necklace is commonly made from cylindrical beads and you can include a heart shaped charm or gemstone pendant to make them memorable unique gifts. Hematite rings and bracelets are also a popular choice.
