"Whitby Jet, synonymous with Queen Victoria and mourning wear, is a rare fossilised gemstone found along the coast of North Yorkshire.
Most geologists think Whitby Jet is the fossilised remains of a tree, similar to the monkey puzzle tree, while others think it is a mineral deposit like turquoise or a by-product of coal formations.
The northern coastal town of Whitby, located in North Yorkshire, become the centre for turning the gemstone into jewellery and artefacts, which had its heyday during the Victorian era."
