FASHION MEETS INTERIORS: PYRITE!


The mineral pyrite is an iron sulfide with the chemical 
formula FeS2.

Pyrite is not only used to make spectacular jewelry 
and interior decorations, but is also believed to provide 
physical healing, emotional healing, and 
spiritual balance.


The metallic luster and pale brass yellow hue give pyrite its
superficial resemblance to gold, otherwise known as fool's gold.


Bold and beautiful pyrite and gold cuff bracelet.

Michele Saulson designs  pyrite earrings.

PSYCHOLOGY OF COLOR IN INTERIOR DESIGN



Color is not randomly selected when it comes to interior design.
Interior designers have a solid understanding of color and the effects which will result. 
For example, a room dressed in all white will psychologically create a feeling of freshness and cleanliness. White is used to create an airy and pure feeling. 
The use of brown colors will bring a cozy, comfy, and natural feeling into your home.

Please see below for the many colors and the psychological values these can bring into your home.
