Lewisian Gneiss is one of the oldest rocks in the world, found primarily in the Outer Hebrides. A metamorphic rock formed around 3 billion years ago, it showcases intricate banding and a mix of minerals like quartz, feldspar, and mica.
The durability and appearance of Lewiston Gneiss make it ideal for crafting jewellery pieces. Pendants made from this stone carry a unique story, connecting wearers to the ancient landscape of Scotland and geological history of the Earth.
