With these drilled freeform cabochons of Pietersite, it is clear why the mineral is also called storm stone: The wild grain is different in every stone - sometimes in different shades of blue, sometimes brown-gold and sometimes mixed!
The drilled Pietersites are about 40-45mm in size; the hole has a size of about 2mm.
Each stone is unique in shape, pattern, color and size - the pictures show only some possibilities.
Pietersite is valued in analytical stone healing according to Michael Gienger, as it helps 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.
