Rhyolite Beads

Cream colors are marbled with soft moss greens and deep burgundy-reds in our stunning Rhyolite beads. These beads remind us of a pleasant walk through an English garden - moss growing between burnt brick pathway stones. These beads also have inclusions of clear to translucent quartz that allow a unique view of the stone’s interior.

Rhyolite, a volcanic rock made up of quartz, feldspar, mica, and hornblende, is very closely related to granite. The difference is that granite forms below the surface of the earth, while rhyolite forms when magma is expelled from below the earth’s surface as lava and then cools rapidly.

Rhyolite is said to bring calm to wearers.
