- Description: Kentucky Limonite (brown Hematite) Pendant - I am not sure if the material call is correct..... it looks more like Claystone, but the weight does not feel right.

The hole shows "wear" from usage. This Pendant is well formed and attractive. I am selling this piece as "broken & glued". I cannot tell for sure, but it appears to have been found broken and glued back together sometime before 1940.
