The King of Stones - Pietersite 925 Silver Necklace

Pietersite, named after its discoverer, Pieter Uys, a Dutch explorer, was first encountered by a South African farmer in 1962. The stone's unique characteristics emerge within its interwoven colored crystals, creating a magnificent texture that resembles a resplendent work of art. It exudes a regal nobility and splendor, earning it the esteemed title, "The King of Stones." Pietersite possesses special optical properties due to the influence of naturally occurring asbestos, which forms a fibrous arrangement. When hydrothermal fluids rich in silica permeate the stone, they replace or encapsulate the original asbestos, resulting in its diverse and stunning hues of brown, yellow, and blue.
