Comments:
Hematite is iron oxide. In some
forms it is red, but this hematite is just iron-colored. Actually, it looks like dark steel. Please
note that metal beads like this are heavier than glass. The "jaggies" that you see in the picture above are
an unfortunately byproduct of digital photography.
