Pyrite is an iron sulfide mineral and is the stone known as "fool's gold". Its name originates from the Greek word for fire, because striking two pieces together can create sparks. Beads made of this stone are very popular due to their neutral tone and ability to blend in with almost anything.
These particular beads have been cut and polished into faceted rondelle beads.
