{"product_id":"septarian-gallets","title":"Septarian Palm Stone - 1.75-2.25 inch","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Septarian Palm Stone is a smooth, flat-polished gallet-style stone showing the material's distinctive cracked pattern, with yellow-brown calcite veins set into a grey limestone base. The branching septa lines web across the surface in a unique pattern on every piece, and the flattened, rounded shape sits comfortably in the palm or under the thumb. Palm-sized and tactile, it makes an earthy, characterful stone to hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSeptarian is traditionally associated with grounding, protection, and calm, often regarded as a nurturing, stabilising stone. As a Palm Stone it suits holding during quiet moments, keeping on a desk, or carrying for a settled, steady focus, and its dramatic cracked patterning also makes it a popular display piece. Its earthy character and steadying reputation give it a quiet, reassuring presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPrimary Focus: Protection \u0026amp; Grounding\u003cbr\u003e\nSecondary Focus: Calm \u0026amp; Stress Relief\u003cbr\u003e\nChakra Association: Root, Sacral\u003cbr\u003e\nZodiac Sign: Taurus, Capricorn\u003cbr\u003e\nChinese Zodiac: Ox, Dog\u003cbr\u003e\nRuling Planet: Saturn\u003cbr\u003e\nElements: Earth\u003cbr\u003e\nMohs Hardness: 3.5-5\u003cbr\u003e\nStone Family: Sedimentary Rock (Concretion)\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Septarian\u003cbr\u003e\nForm: Palm Stone\u003cbr\u003e\nFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Size: 45-55 mm (1.75-2.25 inches)\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Weight: 57-124 g\u003cbr\u003e\nListing: Single unit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeptarian, also sold under the trade name Dragon Stone for its cracked, scale-like appearance, is a sedimentary concretion of calcite, aragonite, and limestone, often with a chalcedony shell, with a Mohs hardness ranging from about 3.5 to 5. It forms when mineral-rich mud gathers around an organic core on an ancient sea floor; as the nodule dries and shrinks it cracks internally, and those cracks, called septa from the Latin for dividing wall, fill with yellow calcite and brown aragonite within a grey limestone matrix. The yellow tone comes from calcite, the brown from aragonite and iron staining, and the grey from the surrounding limestone or chalcedony shell. Concretions of this kind have long attracted human interest as curiosities and folk \"thunderstones,\" though the Dragon Stone name and its crystal-market use are a modern commercial development. Sources include Madagascar, the United States (Utah), Morocco, England, New Zealand, and Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
