The pyrite is held in place by silver prongs and keeps its rough, golden, crystalline surface. The silver frame forms the tortoise's head, four curled legs and a small pointed tail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePyrite is a natural mineral with a metallic gold lustre, often called \"fool's gold\". Because each ring uses a natural piece of rough pyrite, the shape, size and pattern of the stone vary from ring to ring. The piece you receive will be similar in design to the one pictured, not identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Indian tradition the tortoise is linked with Lord Vishnu's Kurma avatar and with Goddess Lakshmi, and is traditionally believed to bring stability, patience and prosperity. The kachua ring is commonly worn according to Vastu and Feng Shui beliefs. Pyrite is traditionally associated with wealth and abundance. These are traditional beliefs, and the ring is sold as jewellery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pyrite used is natural and untreated, and the ring ships with a lab report.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct details:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetal: 925 sterling silver\u003cbr\u003eStone: Natural raw pyrite, untreated\u003cbr\u003eDesign: Kachua (tortoise) with prong-set pyrite shell\u003cbr\u003eStone shape: Natural rough; varies by piece\u003cbr\u003eCertification: Lab report included\u003cbr\u003ePackage contents: One ring\u003cbr\u003eBrand: GemKrishna\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare: Pyrite reacts to moisture, so keep the ring away from water, sweat, soap and perfume. Remove it before bathing, washing hands or exercising. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth and store it in a dry, airtight pouch. The silver can be cleaned with a silver polishing cloth, avoiding the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFAQ\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs the ring made of real silver?\u003cbr\u003eYes. The ring is made of 925 sterling silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs the pyrite natural?\u003cbr\u003eYes. The pyrite is natural and untreated.

It is often worn after a simple puja on an auspicious day such as Friday. These are traditional practices, not requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat are the believed benefits of pyrite and the tortoise?\u003cbr\u003ePyrite is traditionally associated with wealth and confidence, and the tortoise with stability and long life. These are cultural and astrological beliefs, not guaranteed effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCan I wear it daily?\u003cbr\u003eYes, but take it off before bathing, washing hands, swimming or exercising, as water and sweat can dull and damage pyrite over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere do you ship from, and is COD available?\u003cbr\u003eOrders ship from Delhi across India.
