Scottish Lewisian Gneiss Pendant

Handmade Scottish Lewisian Gneiss pendant.

Scottish Lewisian Gneiss
The Scottish Lewisian is hand-mined on the Isles of Lewis, Harris and North Highlands.
Lewisian is part of the ancient bedrock of Scotland and it is one of the oldest rocks in the world, as it is estimated to be about 3 billion years old!
The unique combination of colours and structures comes from the different minerals that the Lewisian is composed of, these are mainly Feldspar, Quartz and Epidote.

Handcrafted in Germany
I saw, grind, and polish these pendants by hand in my own small workshop in the beautiful little Town of Bad Honnef am Rhein in Germany. Using diamond-coated grinding wheels, saw blades, and drills, I shape and polish the stones to bring out their unique colours.
