Shungite Bracelet Large Broad Bead

**Shungite** is a rare and powerful black stone made mostly of **carbon**, found primarily in the Karelia region of **Russia**. Unlike any other mineral, shungite contains **fullerenes**—unique carbon molecules with antioxidant and electromagnetic shielding properties—making it both scientifically fascinating and energetically potent.

With a matte to shiny black appearance, shungite ranges in type from regular (low carbon content) to **elite or noble shungite** (with up to 98% carbon). It has been used for centuries in Russia for **purification and healing**, especially in water filtration due to its natural ability to absorb toxins and bacteria.

In metaphysical and holistic practices, shungite is widely recognized as a **stone of protection, detoxification, and grounding**. It is believed to shield against **electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs)** from electronics, cleanse negative energy, and support physical and emotional balance. Many people keep shungite near computers, wear it as jewelry, or place it in water (when using safe, polished or elite forms) for energetic cleansing.
