Hematine, often referred to as “Magnetic Hematite,” is a man-made ceramic material designed to mimic the look and feel of natural hematite without its cost and rarity. Created through processes involving iron oxide, barium, and sometimes strontium, Hematine is produced worldwide wherever there’s a demand for cost-effective, magnetic jewelry. Unlike natural hematite, which is an iron oxide mineral, Hematine is engineered for its aesthetic and magnetic properties.
The name “Hematine” is derived from “hematite,” reflecting its intended imitation. It’s also known by alternative names such as: Hemalyke or Hemalike or Magnetic Hematite
While Hematine doesn’t carry the same metaphysical history as natural hematite, it’s embraced in modern practices for:
Magnetic Therapy: Proponents of magnetic therapy believe Hematine can improve blood circulation, reduce pain, and promote healing, leveraging its magnetic properties for health benefits.
Energy Balancing: In metaphysical circles, Hematine is thought to balance the body’s magnetic field, grounding energy, and aiding in stress relief due to its calming, magnetic influence.
Iridescent Hematine, an advancement on traditional Hematine, is a man-made ceramic material engineered to mimic not only the look of hematite but also to display a captivating iridescent sheen. This material is created by adding a thin, transparent coating to the Hematine, which produces an interference effect with light, resulting in a play of colors similar to a peacock’s feather or an oil slick. It’s found wherever there’s a demand for visually striking, affordable jewelry, often in places like China, where it’s produced for global markets.
“Iridescent Hematine” combines “hematine,” a term for synthetic hematite, with “iridescent,” describing its color-changing properties. It’s also known as: Magnetic Iridescent Hematite, Rainbow Hematine
While lacking the ancient history of natural hematite, Iridescent Hematine has found its niche in modern metaphysical use:
Magnetic Therapy: Like regular Hematine, it’s used in magnetic therapy for its supposed benefits in improving circulation, reducing pain, and balancing energies, with the added allure of its changing colors.
