Matte blackstone

Here you find beads made of blackstone with a matte surface. Blackstone has gained popularity as a material used for edgy and masculine jewelry due to its deep black colour. It is often used in combination with haematite and onyx for men's jewelry – and for DIY men’s jewelry making. The gemstone preserves its beautiful black surface even when it comes in contact with human skin. If washed with soap, the colour turns into grey until it once again comes in contact with the skin or a moist/oiled surface.
