The beads of the piestersite strand have a polished surface and are 3mm in size; the entire strand has a length of about 40cm.
The color spectrum of the balls shows the typical colors of Pietersite in different shades of brown and the dark blue-gray of the Falcon's Eye.
Pietersite is used in gemology to keep a cool head in confusing situations, to process impressions faster and to cope with conflicts, which has also earned the mineral the nickname "storm stone". Changes can be initiated more easily with the help of Pietersite, as unpleasant things can be overcome more easily.
The first discovery of Pietersite was made in 1962 by the mineral dealer Sidney "Sid" Pieters in Namibia (at that time Southwest Africa); the stone is also named after him. The spelling petersite, pieterisite
or Pietersiet is therefore not correct.
