Scottish Lewisian – A Fascinating Natural Treasure
Scottish Lewisian originates from the islands of Lewis, Harris, and the northern Highlands. The raw material is carefully hand-collected and forms the bedrock of Scotland. With an estimated age of 3 billion years, it is among the oldest rocks in the world!
The group of rocks known as Lewisian gneiss consists of a variety of minerals such as feldspar, quartz, and epidote. This exceptional composition gives Lewisian its stunning colors and unique textures.
Even the earliest cultures in Scotland used Lewisian to construct significant monuments, including stone circles and sacred sites. Its deeply rooted history makes it a remarkable stone with both cultural and geological significance
