Collection: Hematite Collection
Shop natural hematite specimens and gemstones for collecting, jewelry making, and lapidary work. Our hematite collection features botryoidal kidney ore hematite, specular hematite, hematite rosettes, raw hematite crystals, tumbled hematite, and polished hematite cabochons sourced from Brazil, Morocco, the United Kingdom (Cumberland), and the United States. Hematite is an iron oxide mineral prized for its striking metallic silver-grey to silver-black color, brilliant mirror-like luster in its specular form, and satisfying heft — it is one of the densest common minerals. Specular hematite displays dazzling silvery sparkle from platy crystal surfaces. Despite its dark appearance, hematite leaves a distinctive red streak — its iron content made it one of humanity's earliest pigments. With a Mohs hardness of 5–6, hematite is well suited for cabochons, beads, and pendants. Ethically sourced with full origin disclosure.
