These chiastolite chip beads showcase warm earthy browns, soft taupes, and deep charcoal-black tones, highlighted by the stone’s signature internal cross-patterning. Chiastolite is a distinctive variety of andalusite formed under metamorphic conditions, where carbon inclusions naturally orient into geometric crosses within the crystal. The organic, chunky chip shapes give each bead strand a rustic, grounded feel, while the varied patterning adds depth and visual interest. Long associated with protection and stability, this material is perfect for earthy jewelry designs with natural character and texture.
