Physical Characteristics: Almost perfect, naturally formed Pyrite cubic crystals. Pyrite is also known as "Fool's Gold", though these cubes would probably not be confused with gold since gold isn't naturally formed in cubes. Pyrite's name is derived from the Greek word for "fire" since it will sometimes create sparks when struck with steel. It is an iron sulfide mineral with a hardness of 6-6.5, and is found all over the world. The cubes in Option 1 weigh about 2 grams, option 2 weigh around 3 grams, option 3 are about 4 grams, all the way up to option 9 which weighs 10 grams (each increase in option number corresponds to an increase of about 1 gram). CAUTION: MAY CONTAIN SULFUR THAT COULD LEACH INTO WATER. Not recommended for elixirs.
Metaphysical Properties: Pyrite is an excellent protective stone against all things negative. It can be very helpful when a dangerous task or job needs to be performed. It has been used in healing work, and is used to bring about transformation in the physical, intellectual, and emotional aspects. It can also be helpful to stabilize and balance emotions, and can repel situations that may cause interference with spiritual and physical matters.
Please Note: The picture, price, and average weight for that size will change according to the option chosen, but the measurements will not. However, there is a ruler included in each picture to give you an idea of size. The option picture will show some sample pieces for that option. The piece picked for you may or may not be shown in the photo. We will use our intuition and attempt to pick out the perfect stone for you!
