Collection: Hypersthenes

Hypersthene is a dark mineral, often brownish or grayish black, belonging to the pyroxene group. It can have a subtle, silky luster, and small veins or bands on the surface give it a unique charm. In older literature, hypersthene is sometimes mentioned as a mineral resembling “bronzyte” or “enstatite,” but it has its own unique structure and optical properties. In esoteric contexts, hypersthene is associated with self-discipline, the ability to make decisions with a “cool head,” and insightful thinking.
