Jet is surprisingly light for its size, warm to the touch and polished to a soft black gloss. These medium tumbled stones measure about 23 by 37 millimeters to 31 by 47 millimeters and 19 to 24 millimeters thick.
Buy one or save with packs of 5 or 10. Jet has a long history in jewelry, famously in Victorian mourning pieces, which makes it a meaningful addition to any collection. Use it as a pocket stone, in a grid or on an altar, or as a gift for history lovers and collectors of unusual stones. Keep it away from harder stones, since jet scratches easily.
