Natural Bloodstone in Pakistan

Bloodstone is the dark green stone with red flecks that older men in Pakistan often wear as a plain, heavy ring. In Arabic and Urdu it is called Hajr al-Dam, and for centuries it has carried stories of strength and protection. Each bloodstone at Authentic Gems is one natural piece, photographed as it is and priced on its own, so the pattern in the photo is the pattern you receive.
