The golden shimmer of pyrite
Pyrite is a special mineral whose surface gives a metallic, gold-toned shimmer. The characteristic, often cube-like or slightly angular crystal forms make it easily recognisable. We offer this Raw mineral pendant in uncut form, so the natural crystal surface and the fine setting come together. The 'gold' colour is actually the result of metallic shimmer, not precious metal.
Why it will become an attention-catching piece
The shining surface of pyrite is immediately noticeable, yet refined. If you are looking for a characterful but not flashy piece of jewellery, this pendant is a good choice. The warm, yellowish-gold colour pairs especially well with autumn and winter outfits, but it can be worn in almost any season. Every piece arrives with a unique pattern.
Which outfits it pairs with
The metallic, golden shimmer of pyrite looks great with beige, cream, chocolate brown, khaki and navy blue outfits. On a black dress it offers an exciting contrast, on white it shows an elegant contrast. It is also excellent for evening wear, as light sources reflect beautifully on its surface.
How to choose a matching chain
No chain is included with the pendant. A gold-toned chain further strengthens the warm, metallic effect, giving a classic, refined look. With a silver chain you get an interesting contrast between the two metal colours. On a leather cord it shows a natural, edgy style. Because of the pendant's size, a chain length of 45–55 cm is recommended.
Care recommendations
Pyrite is sensitive to humid air and chemicals, so its surface may oxidise over time. Please clean it with a dry, soft cloth and avoid water. Store it separately in soft fabric, preferably in a dry place, and avoid leaving the jewellery box open for long periods. This way the metallic shimmer is preserved for a long time.
