About the stone

What is Chromite?

Chromite is iron chromium oxide, the only ore of chromium. It is black and heavy with a metallic to submetallic shine.

The Sukinda valley in Odisha holds most of India's chromite.

Care & cleaning

A softer stone — wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth, avoid harsh chemicals and knocks, and store separately from harder crystals.
