Rainbow pyrite is the trade name for an iridescent form of ‘pyrite druzy'. And druzy is a term used to describe gemstones in the form of encrustations or clusters of minute sparkling crystals coating a matrix. Druzy gemstones are actually pretty rare, especially in non-quartz species of crystals. This particular type of pyrite is a relatively recent discovery, and it has only been found in one location – Russia. Rainbow pyrite is famed for its rainbow-like iridescence, which is caused by differential refraction and diffraction of light. And it's so beautiful and mesmerizing! Top quality materials, like this stone, can shimmer with all colors of the rainbow, including gold, green, pink and blue. Pyrite is an opaque iron sulphide which usually occurs in a bright brassy yellow color and a strong, metallic luster.

This stone is found along the banks of the Volga River in central Russia. The rainbow colors happen naturally and are not electroplated to enhance the color.

Pyrite is also sometimes considered to be lucky, attracting wealth and abundance. Though not a birthstone, pyrite is most commonly associated with the zodiac sign of Leo. 2024
