Care and Handling of Your Pyrite

To ensure your Pyrite from Indonesia retains its characteristic shine for a long time, we recommend gentle care:

• Pyrite should not be cleaned with water or damp cloths, as it is sensitive to oxidation and can tarnish upon contact with moisture.
• For cleaning, it is best to use a dry, soft cloth or a fine brush.
• Protect from direct and prolonged sunlight to preserve the surface.
• Store Pyrite dry and protected, not together with harder minerals, to avoid scratches.

How Does Pyrite Differ from Real Gold?

Pyrite is colloquially referred to as "Fool's Gold" because at first glance it can resemble the precious metal. Unlike gold, however, Pyrite is noticeably more brittle, has a more brass-like color, and leaves a metallic but matte streak when rubbed against a rough surface. Gold, on the other hand, is soft, malleable, and leaves a golden streak. Mineralogically, these are completely different substances – Pyrite is an iron sulfide, gold is a pure metal.
