Pietersite Pendant Necklace in Sterling Silver
This Pietersite stone has a beautiful mix of blue, white and even some rust coloring, with a hint of shimmer. It is wrapped in Sterling Silver that has been oxidized to give it an “antiqued” look. The pendant comes with an 18” wax cord necklace, extendable to 20”.
Pietersite is a highly unique crystal that originates from Windhoek, Namibia. Immediately recognizable through its swirling mass of colors and textures, the pietersite stone is often referred to as the “Tempest” for its similarity to a wild desert storm. Pietersite, also called "eagle's eye," was named in honor of Sid Pieters who discovered it in 1962 in Namibia, Africa. Namibia is the only place where pietersite can currently be found.
Categorized as a chalcedony stone, Pietersite is a microcrystalline quartz that can be found in masses of jasper. The distinctive shimmering gold streaks are what makes pietersite so special, and is often accompanied by abstract swirls of color like an impressionistic oil painting.
Metaphysical Properties:
The dominant meaning of pietersite is transformation. The shifting colors and swirls that seem to dance in the light make pietersite a powerful symbol for change, allowing us to use it as support for seasons of great adjustment or flux. Pietersite also represents strength and willpower, allowing us to push through the discomfort of change and find fulfilment on the other side.
Pietersite is affiliated with two chakras: the solar plexus chakra, and third eye chakra. The solar plexus chakra is all about willpower and self-confidence. The third eye chakra represents foresight, intuition and imagination.
