Hypersthene Cat Head Pendant | Sterling Silver | 18" Chain

Mysterious, magnetic, and quietly powerful, this beautifully crafted cat head pendant houses a genuine Hypersthene stone, making it a truly rare find in the world of crystal jewellery.

The Stone

Hypersthene is a member of the pyroxene mineral group, prized for its deep, velvety darkness and the extraordinary silvery-copper flash, known as schiller, that moves across its surface in the light. This optical phenomenon, similar to labradorescence, gives each stone a living, shifting quality that is impossible to replicate.

Relatively uncommon in fine jewellery, Hypersthene is found in only a handful of locations worldwide, including Norway, Greenland, the USA, and parts of Australia. Its scarcity, combined with its striking appearance, makes it a collector's stone as much as a wearable one.

The Properties

Often called the Stone of Magic, Hypersthene is revered for its deeply calming energy. It is said to quiet mental noise, ease anxiety, and support clear, grounded decision-making, ideal for those who feel overwhelmed or overstimulated. It is also associated with psychic awareness and intuition, gently opening the inner eye while offering a protective shield against negativity.

With a Mohs hardness of 5–6, Hypersthene is best worn with care and kept away from harder stones when stored.

The Setting

Set within an intricately detailed cat head silhouette, a symbol of independence, mystery, and feminine power, this pendant arrives on an 18-inch sterling silver chain, sitting beautifully at the collarbone. A meaningful piece for the spiritually curious, the crystal lover, or anyone drawn to the magic of the natural world.

Gift Ready

This pendant arrives beautifully presented and gift ready, perfect for treating yourself or someone special.
