In principle I keep the weight below 5 grams per earring, so it doesn’t stretch or hurt your ears even if you wear it the whole day. Occasionally, for some designs, that weight limit exceeds by a gram – every pair has their specific weight marked under the general description or “dimensions” tab.
Rhodonite is a manganese inosilicate mineral, often displaying a captivating range from pale pink to deep rose red, with black manganese oxide veins creating a dramatic contrast. This stone forms in metamorphic rocks where manganese-rich solutions interact with existing rock structures. Major sources include Russia, particularly the Ural Mountains, and also Australia, Brazil, Canada, and the United States.
The name “rhodonite” comes from the Greek word “rhodon,” meaning “rose,” reflecting its pink hues. It’s also known by other names like Bustamite, Pink Spar, Red Meneghinite, Fowlerite (a zinc-rich variety), Hermannite, and Cummingtonite.
Rhodonite vibrates with the energy of Venus, symbolizing love, beauty, and harmony. It’s deeply connected to the heart chakra, aiding in healing emotional wounds, fostering forgiveness, and encouraging unconditional love. This stone actively balances the emotional body, helping individuals to overcome self-destructive behaviors and anger, transforming these into compassion and love.
In Russian culture, rhodonite, known as “Orletz” or “eagle stone,” was believed to be used by eagles in their nests, symbolizing strength and protection. Russian artisans crafted this stone into significant pieces of art, including the famous Fabergé eggs, where its deep red color represented love, passion, and life’s blood. Rhodonite also played a role in ceremonial objects, invoking these qualities. In metaphysical practices, people use rhodonite to clear emotional blockages in relationships, promoting mutual understanding and emotional stability.
