100% natural African Bloodstone beads.
African bloodstone, a variety of chalcedony, is a grey gemstone distinguished by its red inclusions of iron oxide, often resembling drops of blood. This unique pattern is formed during the stone's formation when silica-rich solutions seep into rock cavities and solidify, trapping the iron oxide particles. Primarily found in South Africa, India, and Australia, African bloodstone has been used in jewelry and decorative objects for centuries.
