Dating back centuries, Serpentine has been used across diverse global cultures as a stone of peaceful transformation and a conduit for spiritual connection. Historically associated with ancient guardians and worn to invite deep inner calm, it serves as an excellent anchor for the wandering mind. In meditative practices, its soothing presence fosters an atmosphere of emotional openness and quiet resilience, aiding practitioners in staying grounded throughout their repetitions.Geologically, Serpentine (sometimes historically referred to as Olivine Jade) is a basic magnesium silicate that encompasses a variety of unique aggregate structures, ranging from opaque to translucent green. Often containing natural inclusions of iron, chromium, nickel, or cobalt, this versatile material displays a distinct, waxy luster and rich variations that make every single bead visually unique.Gemstone Properties

I wish folks that create these products would describe whether the string is elastic. It is not, and so while a pretty piece the lack of elasticity renders it less versatile.

Hi, elastic can break, these are on sturdy cord with an adjustable knot, happy to take if back if need be.
