This shape is ideal for massage and wellness applications. The smaller and more elongated Small Palmstones are very good for stone overlays that are intended to cover a smaller area of the body. This shape is also particularly suitable for massages on the face and feet.
The self-contained shape of the oval conveys a special sense of calm and harmony.
Size: approx. 4.5 x 3 cm
Hypersthene got its name from the Greek "hyper" (over) and "stheos" (strength); this refers to its greater hardness compared to the closely related Bronzite. Spellings such as hyperstene or hyperstehne are therefore incorrect.
In 1988, Hypersthene was renamed Ferrosilite by the International Mineralogical Association. Synonyms for Hypersthene are Augite-Bronzite, Iron Anthophyllite, Iron Enstatite, Ferroanthophyllite, Ficinite, Labradorblende, Paulite, Schiller Spar and Szaboite as well as Hyperstein.
The mineral Hypersthene is also called black jade, as mineralogically it falls into exactly the same group as true Jadeite jade. Both are members of the pyroxene group. While Hypersthene forms the iron-rich mixture of enstatite and ferrosilite and belongs to the Mg-Fe pyroxenes, Jadeite is counted among the sodium pyroxenes.

Spiritual and wellness with gemstones: Small Palmstone Hypersthene
Hello! My name is Marco Schreier. I founded my business in 1981 and ran it first alongside school and later alongside studying mineralogy.
Known throughout the industry as the specialist wholesaler Marco Schreier Mineralienhandlung GmbH, my team and I have developed ever new fields of use for precious stones, water stones, therapy stones and stones for various purposes such as healing treatments, massages and wellness concepts. In order to make our strict purity criteria for therapy stones clear, we founded the Lapis Vitalis ® brand in the year 2005.
Accompanied by my friend and author of numerous stone healing books Michael Gienger and with the well-known author Monika Grundmann from Edelstein Balance ®, we have developed a comprehensive range of stones for use in spas, wellness studios, meditation, yoga and for spiritually and therapeutically working professionals.
