About this piece
A Capricorn (Makar Rashi) bracelet is a stretch band of black onyx and pyrite beads, a dark banded stone and a golden, metallic stone. Vedic tradition pairs Capricorn with Saturn, its ruling planet, and both stones are linked with discipline, protection and grounded confidence. It is worn by those born under Capricorn to support patience, focus and steady progress.
Specifications
How to wear
Wear it on the right wrist. Saturday (Shanivar), the day of Saturn, is the customary day to begin. Remove it before bathing, swimming or applying perfume. Cleanse it with incense smoke or by resting it overnight on a selenite plate.
Frequently asked
Which hand should a Capricorn bracelet be worn on?
Wear it on the right wrist and begin on a Saturday if you follow the custom. It is unisex.
How can I tell real black onyx from a fake one?
Real black onyx feels dense and cool to the touch, with straight, even bands. Glass copies feel lighter and look too glossy.
Who should wear a Capricorn bracelet?
It is traditionally chosen by those born under Capricorn, and anyone who likes its meaning of discipline and steadiness can wear it.
Does it get wet, and how should I care for it?
Remove it before bathing or swimming, as moisture can tarnish the pyrite. Wipe it dry after wear and keep it away from perfume.
How to verify this is genuine
Pyrite is iron disulphide — metallic brass-gold, Mohs 6–6.5, and brittle. Its lookalike is not usually a fake stone but plated brass or resin, and its real enemy is water.
- 01Streak test
Drag pyrite across unglazed ceramic: it leaves a greenish-black streak. Gold and brass leave a yellow streak.
- 02Crystal form
Natural pyrite shows flat faces and cubic or striated structure even in tumbled beads. Perfectly smooth, uniform gold spheres are plated.
- 03Weight
Pyrite is dense (SG ~5.0) — a pyrite bracelet feels distinctly heavy for its size. Plated resin is light.
- 04Spark test (loose stone only)
Struck against steel, pyrite sparks — the property that gave it the name (Greek pyr, fire). Do not attempt on a strung bracelet.
Care note — Care matters more than authentication for pyrite: it oxidises in moisture and can disintegrate. Keep it dry — never wash it, never salt-water cleanse it, and remove it before bathing or workouts.
