Midnight Bronze Serpentinite Leaf drop - Large on honey

A dreamy mix of Goldy tones.

This New Zealand Serpentinite hails from the South Islands' West Coast and is collected by us from our local beaches.

Her Front side holds gorgeous splurges of golden tones set in an almost navy blue/black base stone. Her backside has hints of aqua hidden in the stone.

Our breastplate style signifies protection of the 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.
