Handmade beads and size variations:

Since each shungite bead is handcrafted, small variations in shape and size are normal and underline the artisanal character and authenticity of each individual bead.

Polish and shine:

Shungite is a relatively soft mineral that can lose its natural shine upon contact with moisture. A dull appearance is therefore typical for shungite and by no means represents a loss of quality. Even if the initial shine may fade over time, the stone remains a unique and impressive accessory. It is precisely its deep black color and natural matte texture that give shungite a special aura that preserves the bead's appeal and value.

Note on staining:

Classic shungite may stain slightly when threaded, especially at the holes, where gray or black particles may become detached. This is a natural property of the stone that is barely noticeable in finished jewelry.

Natural inclusions:

Shungite may contain inclusions of pyrite and quartzite, visible as golden or gray lines and dots, sometimes resembling fine scratches. Such inclusions are characteristic features of the stone and confirm its authenticity.

These shungite beads combine the powerful presence of shungite with a minimalist design. The cylindrical shape allows the beads to be stylishly integrated into jewelry or accessories. Each stone from the renowned "Zazhoginskij" mine is a unique, handcrafted piece that impresses with its balancing and protective power.

The shungite mined from the Zazhoginskij mine belongs to the highest quality category (Category 2) and is used exclusively for our beads and objects. Regular visits to the mining sites and workshops ensure that only first-class shungite material is processed. Quality is verified through tests for electrical conductivity, weight, hardness, and optical characteristics.

Certificate:
