Serpentine Tumbled Stone - 10-20 mm
Product Description
These Serpentine Tumbled Stones are small, polished pieces in mottled greens that range from light olive to deeper moss, with a smooth, gently waxy surface. The compact size keeps the natural colour variation and texture close at hand, and the stones feel light and easy to handle. They suit pocket carry, crystal grids, jars, or collections where soft colour variation and natural texture are appreciated.
Serpentine is traditionally associated with renewal, grounding and a steady connection to natural cycles, and in this smaller tumbled form the stones are easy to keep on hand or share. People carry a piece through the day, place a few in a bowl, or use them in grid work. They are a popular, approachable stone for anyone drawn to natural green materials.
Because each stone is natural, the blend of greens and the surface mottling will differ from one small piece to the next.

Geological Information
Serpentine is a group of related magnesium silicate hydroxide minerals rather than a single mineral, soft at about Mohs 3 to 5, with a green colour that ranges from pale yellow-green to deep forest green and is usually mottled. Named for its snakeskin appearance, it is frequently used as a jade substitute and must not be represented or sold as jade. Some serpentine sources contain chrysotile, a fibrous form of asbestos, so only confirmed non-fibrous material is suitable for retail; this material is offered as confirmed non-fibrous. It has a long history of decorative use in ancient China, Egypt and Mesoamerica. This material is sourced from China, with serpentine more broadly found in New Zealand, Italy, South Africa, Afghanistan and the USA.
AuturaSol Standard
Each natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity. Natural variations in colour, structure, inclusions, and surface features are inherent to geological materials and contribute to the individuality of each piece. Any known treatments, enhancements, stabilization, or man-made characteristics are clearly disclosed within the product information where applicable. Every piece is inspected and photographed to reflect its true character; however, lighting conditions, screen settings, and natural variation may cause slight differences in appearance. If you have any questions about a piece before completing your purchase, we're always here to help. Where authenticity meets beauty, we tell you exactly what you're holding.
Care Note
Serpentine is soft (Mohs 3 to 5) and scratches easily. Store it apart from harder stones and handle it gently to protect the polished surface.
