Thomsonite is a highly coveted jewelry stone primarily from the north shore of Lake Superior. Dark green and pink share the glory in obicular eye-like patterns and radianting fan-shaped sprays. Formed in small holes in volcanic basalts, stones have a rounded nodule form and are tricky to remove from the host rock without cracking. A hardness of 5-5.5, it often has broken bits that make an interesting look with a dark point surrounded by radiating pale pink. A rare zeolite, it is now difficult to find and is treasured for unique hand-crafted jewelry. Our thomsonite pendants are elegantly wire wrapped with top-quality 14/20 yellow gold, pink gold, and tarnish-resistant argentium silver wires. They make superior gifts and keepsakes reminding owners of Lake Superior's shores.
