A Beautiful Gold and black-Toned Serpentinite
This striking piece of West Coast Serpentinite was found and hand-carved by us along the rugged shores of New Zealand’s South Island.
Featuring a unique blend of black, grey, and golden splashes, this stone has a warm, organic beauty that makes it truly one of a kind with braided style lashing.
Our breast plate design represents the protection of her wearer.
Sometimes porous, serpentinite can absorb oils from your skin and its colour may deepen over time - this should not be seen as a flaw but as part of the stone’s natural evolution with its wearer. ( it will darken this stone)

About Serpentinite:
A rich and varied stone, serpentinite is one of three pounamu stones used in traditional carving, and one of the most recognizable. A metamorphic stone formed from antigorite, lizardite and chrysotile, this wide mix of minerals produce a stone of immense complexity, and individual pieces can contain colours ranging from deep moss green to aquatic blue, with gold, orange, and brown highlights.
Healing Properties:
A healing stone, serpentinite replenishes and restores energies within the body and creates a protective field around its wearer.
