Approximately 8mm round Golden Pietersite gemstone beads. Golden Pietersite is a chatoyant (shimmery) form of chalcedony with fibers of amphibole minerals. It varies in color from pale off-white translucent gold through tan, subtle green, bright yellow-gold, and deeper shades of brown, gray and nearly black. A few beads closely resemble tiger's eye. Golden Pietersite is not always available, so order now while supplies last. Our Pietersite has well drilled holes, so is easy to use with your favorite stringing and assembly methods for earrings, bracelets and necklaces. Visit our Jewelry Education Station for a variety of tips and techniques for stringing, and for making earrings.
