{"product_id":"serpentine-tumbled-peru","title":"Peru Serpentine Tumbled Stone - 25-35 mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese Serpentine Tumbled Stones from Peru show a mottled green colour, ranging from pale yellow-green to deeper forest tones, polished into smooth rounded pieces with a soft, slightly waxy sheen. The colour often varies across a single stone, with lighter and darker patches that give the surface a natural, organic look. The generous palm size sits comfortably in the hand and works well in a bowl or on a shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSerpentine is traditionally associated with renewal, transformation and a grounded connection to natural cycles, and is commonly chosen by people working through change or wanting a calm, earthy stone. Many hold a piece in meditation, keep one in a quiet space, or carry it as a steadying reminder. It is often given to someone starting fresh or seeking a sense of natural balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Serpentine stone is natural, so the mix of light and dark green and the surface mottling will be its own in the piece you receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Focus: Transformation \u0026amp; Growth\u003cbr\u003eSecondary Focus: Protection \u0026amp; Grounding\u003cbr\u003eChakra Association: Heart, Root\u003cbr\u003eZodiac Sign: Scorpio, Gemini\u003cbr\u003eChinese Zodiac: Snake, Horse\u003cbr\u003eRuling Planet: Saturn\u003cbr\u003eElements: Earth\u003cbr\u003eMohs Hardness: 3 to 5\u003cbr\u003eStone Family: Phyllosilicate\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Natural Serpentine\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Peru\u003cbr\u003eForm: Tumbled Stone\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Size: 25-35 mm (1.0-1.4 inches)\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Weight: Single stone, 100 g, or 1 lb (454 g bulk quantity)\u003cbr\u003eListing: Single unit or sold by weight, portion selected at checkout\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSerpentine is not a single mineral but a group of related magnesium silicate hydroxide minerals, with a soft Mohs hardness of about 3 to 5, and its green colour ranges from pale yellow-green to deep forest green, often mottled. It is named for its resemblance to snakeskin and is frequently used as a jade substitute, so it should never be misrepresented or sold as jade. Because some serpentine sources contain chrysotile, a fibrous form of asbestos, only confirmed non-fibrous material should be retailed; this material is offered as confirmed non-fibrous. The translucent gem variety is known as Bowenite. Serpentine has a long history of use as a green stone in ancient China, Egypt and Mesoamerica. This material is sourced from Peru, with serpentine more broadly found in New Zealand, Italy, South Africa, China and the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
