Hematite has been prized since ancient times, said to be a stone that governs blood and invigorates life force. The length is about 40cm. Spinel has been added to the hematite to create a stylish necklace. This is an unused item stored at home, so I don't think there are any noticeable scratches or stains, but it has been stored with other items. Please purchase if you understand that this is a personal storage item. No box included. It will be reinforced with bubble wrap and shipped.
