Unlike traditional Indian bloodstone (heliotrope), which is solid dark green with red spotting, this material forms with a more varied mineralogical matrix. The diverse colouration is created by chlorite inclusions causing the green hues, quartz providing translucent grey and white zones, and iron oxide (hematite) creating the signature red mottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Aesthetic Appeal --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAesthetic Appeal\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach bracelet features an \u003cstrong\u003eorganic mix of colours\u003c\/strong\u003e, with dark greens as the base and natural red and grey patterns that create depth and character.
