PIEMONTITE

Piemonite is a rare calcium aluminium silicate mineral from the epidote group, first discovered in Piedmont, Italy—its namesake. Geologically, it forms in metamorphic rocks rich in manganese, giving the stone its distinctive reddish-brown to purplish hues with dark metallic flashes. Often found in crystalline or granular form, Piemonite has a subtle, earthy beauty. Metaphysically, it is believed to ground energy while stimulating creativity and vitality, promoting motivation, courage, and a balanced connection between the physical and emotional realms.
